Consultation calls are a great way to see if we’re a good fit before beginning therapy. I offer a 15–20 minute call where we can connect, talk about what’s bringing you in, and give you a sense of how I work.
Choosing a therapist can feel overwhelming, and this is a space for you to ask any questions and get a feel for whether it feels right to move forward. If we decide we’re a good fit, we can schedule your first session. If not, I’m happy to help connect you with other therapists who may be a better match.
-
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin to understand what’s bringing you into therapy. We may explore your goals if that feels helpful, but there’s no pressure to have everything figured out.
We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you!

My approach is relational, experiential, and grounded in empathy. I work to create a space where you feel supported in exploring whatever is coming up for you.

I work with people who often look like they have it all together on the outside, but underneath feel overwhelmed, anxious, self-critical, or exhausted from carrying so much. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and relationship patterns that no longer serve them. Together we find a more sustainable, and compassionate way of moving through life.
