What to Expect in Your First Session

Your first session is all about creating a safe and welcoming space where you can begin your journey toward healing and growth. I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming, so I take time to ensure you feel comfortable, heard, and supported.

Here’s what typically happens:
