Therapy Services

If you're considering therapy, you're likely navigating something that feels heavy, unclear, or just too much to hold on your own. This page gives an overview of how I work, who I support, & the kinds of challenges I can help with

How I work

I offer a warm, collaborative space where you can slow down, reflect & begin making sense of your experiences. Therapy is not about having all the answers, it’s about creating room for curiosity, insight, & growth, at a pace that feels right for you.

What to Expect

🗓️ A Free 15-minute consultation – an informal chat to see if we feel like a good fit

🧭 An initial session – a space to explore what’s bringing you to therapy & what you hope to gain

🤝 Therapy plan – we’ll decide together whether short- or longer-term therapy feels right for you

🔄 Regular reviews – we check in to see how things are going & adjust the pace or focus if needed

🧘 A flexible, collaborative approach – therapy is shaped around your needs & your process
