“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
— Maya Angelou

What to Expect
Choosing to start therapy is always a mixed bag of emotions. Whether you recognized yourself that you have hit a wall or others around you are encouraging you, taking the first step can be unnerving.
The first session will be all about learning who you are, what brought you to therapy, and your goals. This first session will be 50 minutes long and will include a variety of questions. Each following session will also be 50 minutes long and the focus will vary depending on your needs and goals. Typically therapy is weekly, but I aim to be flexible to meet your needs.
In my practice I use a variety of therapeutic interventions, but the overarching goal being allowing you to set the pace and goals of your therapy. Client’s with me have said that they appreciate my straightforward approach and bringing humor into sessions.
