What It’s Like to Work with Me
Therapy with me is interactive, insightful, and results-oriented. I don’t just listen and nod my head. I help you recognize patterns and develop a plan. Your time is valuable, and I work efficiently to ensure that every session is purposeful and productive.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, my approach is engaged and active. I balance thoughtful insights, alternative perspectives, and actionable strategies with a listening ear, empathy, and support.
Some of my clients have never attended therapy before and some come to me after feeling frustrated by past therapy experiences. They find my down-to-earth, direct, and compassionate style to be a refreshing change.
Because therapy should fit into your life, not the other way around, I offer flexible scheduling options so you can get support when you need it most, whether that’s during a difficult transition or as challenges arise.
