  • Therapy is different for everyone. We all have unique goals and histories. Whether you want to decrease anxiety, feel less stress from chronic issues, or work to lessen the impact of trauma, we will make a plan that aligns with your values. Once we talk about what brought you to therapy and where you would like to be, we will create goals that fit. From there, we will talk about what kinds of therapy you are comfortable with and start doing the work. I will be with you and explain things every step of the way!

  • We will explore ways to cope and resources and supports you can rely on outside of sessions so that you can stay in the present.
