Starting Therapy

Beginning therapy can feel like a big step.

Some clients come in knowing exactly what they want to work on. Others have a general sense that something feels off, overwhelming, or difficult to carry on their own.

Both are completely okay.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting.

What Sessions Are Like

"Therapy is a conversation, but a different kind of conversation than you may be used to.

It’s a space where you can slow down, speak openly, and begin making sense of what you’ve been carrying."

In our work together, we often focus on:

• understanding patterns in how you think, respond, and relate
• exploring the expectations and responsibilities you carry
• noticing what feels difficult to shift, even when you’re aware of it
• making sense of the difference between how things look externally and how they feel internally

How Change Happens

Change in therapy isn’t usually sudden.

It tends to happen through increased clarity and understanding. These shifts build gradually over time.

As patterns become clearer, many clients begin to notice:

• less mental noise and overthinking
• a greater sense of steadiness
• clearer boundaries in relationships
• more confidence in their decisions
• a stronger connection to what they need

Session Structure

Sessions are typically 60 minutes in length.

Some clients choose 90 minute sessions when they would like more time to explore something in depth, without feeling rushed.

Together, we can determine what fits best based on what you’re looking for.

Frequency & Pace

Frequency
Many clients begin with weekly or biweekly sessions.
Consistency allows the work to build over time and creates space for meaningful reflection between sessions.
As things begin to shift, sessions may become less frequent.

A Thoughtful Pace

There’s no expectation to move quickly in therapy.

This is a space where you can take the time to think, reflect, and understand things more clearly. I tend to notice patterns quickly, but we take the time to work through them in a way that feels steady and manageable.

Many clients spend a long time managing things on their own before reaching out.

If you’re at a point where something feels like it needs attention, therapy can offer a place to begin.
