What to Expect: Your Therapy Journey, Step by Step

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. Here’s what working together looks like—from your first consultation to feeling ready to move forward on your own.

  • Step 1: Book a Free Consultation

    This is a no-pressure conversation where we’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, what you’re looking for, and how I can help. You’ll get a sense of my approach, and we’ll see if we’re a good fit.

  • Step 2: Your First Therapy Session

    In our first session, we’ll go deeper into your story—what’s been weighing on you, how past experiences might be shaping your present, and what you want to change. This is your space to be heard, without judgment or expectation.

  • Step 3: Weekly Sessions & Progress

    Therapy is a process, and we’ll move at your pace. We’ll explore patterns, develop tools to manage anxiety, and work on building relationships that feel safe and supportive. Each session is tailored to what you need in the moment, while keeping your long-term growth in mind.

  • Step 4: Feeling Ready to Move Forward

    Therapy isn’t forever—but the changes you make will be. When you start feeling more confident, clear, and steady in yourself, we’ll begin tapering sessions at a pace that feels right for you. You’ll leave with the tools and insight to navigate life with more trust in yourself.

What Therapy Is & What It Isn’t

Therapy Is a Safe, Judgment-Free Space

Therapy isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about giving yourself permission to explore, process, and grow. It’s a space where you can be honest about what’s weighing on you, without fear of judgment or pressure to “fix” everything overnight.

Therapy Isn’t About Blaming or Dwelling on the Past

We don’t just sit and rehash old wounds. While we’ll explore how past experiences have shaped you, therapy is about helping you move forward—breaking free from unhealthy patterns and creating a life that feels more aligned with who you are now.

The Goal of Therapy: Clarity, Confidence & Change

Therapy isn’t about changing who you are—it’s about understanding yourself more deeply. The goal is to help you recognize patterns, build healthier relationships, and develop the tools to navigate life with more self-trust and emotional balance.
