I get a lot of people who come to see me who are new to therapy. So I think it is important to discuss what the initial sessions will look like since every therapist is a bit different. During our initial session, we will get to know one another, discuss your history and the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you reach your goals.

In our sessions you will often hear me say “Practice makes progress” and to practice being OK with being uncomfortable. Well…. Here I am practicing what I preach. Social media is super intimidating to me as a clinician. It's something I was always told needed to be private from my clients when I was working in the public sector and schools. I often get stuck between wanting to create a welcoming and authentic platform, and worrying that my attempts appear pale in comparison to some of my therapist colleagues who make this s**t look easy. This often results in me just not posting anything at all. This is me showing up for myself - I ask you to do it all the time and am trying to lead by example. To all who are following, thank you! ✌🏻💕
