You may have thought you had it all mapped out. You thought you'd be living the life of your dreams. That's for movies and social media posts, but not real life. What you thought would be a straight path forward turned into a winding road with twists, turns, and dead ends. You thought life would go in the order you wanted it to. But now that you're here, you are realizing life is not quite that simple. You're feeling defeated, confused, and anxious.
Many of my clients come to me because they want to:
redefine their life goals
make sense of this scary thing called "adulthood"
decrease anxiety while learning to take life one day at a time
clarify what they want in their future while enjoying the present
My goal for my clients is to embrace the unexpected challenges that life throws at us. I help my clients to focus less on the end goal and more on the journey. It is my hope for clients to accept themselves as ever-evolving beings. Therapy with me isn't:
Me telling you what to do with your life
Me leaving you to feel lost at sea with your own choices
You get all the answers in one session and everything is fixed forever and ever
What we process in therapy is 100% confidential. You may feel vulnerable initially, but our pace, what you disclose & how we approach solutions and coping is up to you. I will encourage you to think in different ways and consider other possibilities. I will help you find the tools you need to be a happier you.
First Steps
We'll have a 10-15 minute initial consultation call to get a sense of what your needs are and see where I can help. From there, if we feel we would be a good fit, we will continue with scheduling your first session.
Session Breakdown
Before your first session, you will complete your intake paperwork and sign releases. In your first session, we will go over the paperwork and any questions you have. I always give clients an option for their first session to either dive right in or have a more 'traditional' intake session where I gather a lot of background information. I understand that every personality style is different, and everyone's comfort level with therapy varies. Sessions are 55 minutes, and I recommend that in the beginning, we meet once a week for the first four weeks to keep up the momentum we see in session. Payment is collected after your session via a credit or debit card.
I enjoy the use of humor in therapy. I consider myself pretty personable and down-to-earth. My approach is pretty conversational. We may talk about the big things you thought you weren't ready to talk about; we may talk about the guy who cut you off in traffic today. In our therapy sessions, you're guiding the conversation.
