I don't have an ideal client. I want to met people where they are at. If you've never had therapy before, it’s important to be aware we don’t start talking about the hard stuff. It can take 2-3 sessions for someone to feel comfortable enough to tell another person what they are struggling with. Therapists cannot read minds, but have studied human patterns of thoughts, feelings & actions. No one can truly know the exact consequences a person has experienced in their life. Regardless of the reason why someone is seeking therapy, there is no judgment, no criticism…just acceptance. People can heal & grow in this type of environment.

You may be feeling like you don’t quite fit the pace of others — like there are steps to complete before you reach the starting line everyone else walked into freely. Maybe you carry exhaustion, anxiety, or grief — wondering how to feel more grounded, creative, or understood. If your identity, transitions, or neurodivergence have brought both gifts and challenges, I see you, and I believe you deserve more than coping; you deserve clarity, resilience, and self-connection. You deserve to feel safe and confident in your relationships, including the one with your own self.

It can be overwhelming to handle everything on your own. This can lead to feeling things such as anxiousness, frustration, or depression. It may not always be easy to seek help, and it's normal to feel uncomfortable with that. I strive to create a welcoming space where my clients and I can work together to create a plan to overcome these obstacles. I believe therapy is a collaborative environment, while the therapist's role is to serve as a guide.
