First Session
In our first session, I take time to get to know you—your story, what’s bringing you to therapy, and what you hope to gain from it. We’ll explore your concerns, begin identifying patterns, and work together to set meaningful therapeutic goals. It’s a collaborative, judgment-free space designed to help you feel seen, heard, and supported from the start.
The Therapy Process
Therapy is a process that unfolds over time, starting with consistent weekly sessions to build trust, gain insight, and create momentum toward your goals. As you begin to feel stronger, more clear, and confident in your growth, we’ll gradually space sessions out to support long-term healing and independence. The pace is always tailored to your needs and progress.
My Approach
Nearly 20 years of counseling and I still believe there is hope for every situation.
I’ve had the honor of witnessing countless clients do the sacred work of uncovering root causes, discovering a greater sense of self, experiencing relief and clarity.
I draw from a variety of approaches, including parts work, grounding techniques, nervous system regulation, and thoughtful exploration, always considering what makes sense for you as an individual.
Together, we'll work to understand how you got here, what's keeping you stuck, and what can actually help you move forward.
Scheduling
To schedule a session or reach out, you’re welcome to contact me through the website, email, phone call, or text—whatever feels easiest for you. I typically respond most quickly to email or text. Once we set a time for your first session, I’ll email a few secure forms to complete ahead of time, including basic demographics, insurance information (if using), and a brief intake to help me understand what’s bringing you in.
Noteworthy
My Christian faith shapes how I view healing and transformation, and for clients who are open to it, faith can be gently integrated into therapy. I deeply respect each client’s beliefs and never impose my own. My goal is to meet you where you are and offer a safe, supportive space.
