Therapy is a space to better understand yourself, process what you’ve been through, and build tools for the life you want now. It’s not just for crises—it can also help with stress, relationships, self-esteem, trauma recovery, anxiety, or feeling stuck. In our work together, therapy can include both practical coping strategies and deeper healing.

You don’t need to be in a crisis to benefit from therapy. Many people start therapy because they’re overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, repeating patterns, navigating life changes, wanting to feel more like themselves again, or to gain a better understanding of themselves. If something is impacting your quality of life, relationships, or peace of mind, therapy may help.

The right therapist is someone you feel at ease with, understood by, and comfortable opening up to. You likely also want someone with experience in the areas you’re dealing with, such as trauma, anxiety, LGBTQ+ identity concerns, life transitions, or relationship patterns. Connection matters.

Yes—therapy can be incredibly effective, especially when you feel comfortable with your therapist and the approach fits your needs. Research shows therapy can help reduce anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, and relationship stress. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported while also helping you make meaningful changes.

The first session is usually a conversation about what’s bringing you in, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you’d like support with. We’ll also talk about your history, current stressors, and goals. There’s no pressure to share everything immediately—we move at a pace that feels supportive and manageable.

I may ask questions like:

• What brought you to therapy now?

• What has been feeling difficult lately?

• What would you like to feel different?

• Have you experienced anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship stress before?

• What has helped you cope in the past?

There are no perfect answers. Therapy is a conversation, not a test.

That’s completely okay. Many people feel nervous in the beginning. Crying, feeling unsure, or not knowing where to start are all welcome in therapy. You don’t need to “perform” or have it figured out beforehand. Part of my job is helping create safety and guiding the process.

Therapy is an investment in your mental and emotional well-being. I’m happy to discuss current rates, insurance options, and whether I’m in-network with your plan. I believe getting support should feel clear and transparent, and I’m happy to answer questions before you begin.
