Scheduling an appointment is easy! You can book a session by calling us, sending an email, or using our online scheduling tool [insert link if applicable]. 

If you're a new client, we’re happy to offer a free consultation to discuss your needs and answer any questions. Feel free to reach out—we look forward to supporting you on your journey.

Currently, evening or weekend appointments are limited. However, we understand that scheduling can be challenging, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you during our regular business hours. Please feel free to contact us to discuss availability or explore alternative scheduling options.

During your first session, we will take time to get to know each other and discuss your goals for therapy. We’ll review any relevant history, explore what brought you to seek therapy, and work together to develop a treatment plan that aligns with your needs. The session will be a safe, confidential space for you to share at your own pace. It’s normal to feel a bit nervous, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. If you have any questions or concerns beforehand, don’t hesitate to reach out.

I use a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities to best support your unique needs. These may include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – helps identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors.

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – focuses on emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.

• Trauma-Focused Therapy – addresses the impact of trauma and promotes healing such as:

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful therapeutic approach designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic memories and distressing life experiences. It involves guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to help reprocess these memories in a way that reduces their emotional charge. EMDR has been shown to be effective for conditions like PTSD, anxiety, and depression. 

  • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based treatment designed to help children, adolescents, and adults process and heal from trauma. This approach combines cognitive behavioral techniques with trauma-sensitive interventions to address the impact of traumatic experiences on emotions, thoughts, and behavior. TF-CBT aims to reduce symptoms of trauma, build coping skills, and improve emotional regulation. 

  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy – incorporates mindfulness techniques to reduce stress and improve emotional well-being.

  • Person-Centered Therapy – focuses on creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment for self-exploration.

  • Solution-Focused Therapy – is a goal-oriented, short-term therapeutic approach that focuses on finding practical solutions to current challenges rather than delving deeply into past issues. 

During our work together, we’ll tailor the approach to fit your personal goals and preferences. If you have any questions or would like more details on specific modalities, feel free to ask.

Trauma-informed care is an approach to therapy that recognizes and understands the impact of trauma on an individual’s life. It involves creating a safe, supportive, and empathetic environment where clients can feel heard, respected, and empowered to heal. This approach focuses on building trust, ensuring that clients have control over their treatment, and recognizing the signs of trauma to avoid re-traumatization. If you’ve experienced trauma, know that we are here to support you in your healing journey with sensitivity and care.
