What to expect



What to Expect
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and if you’re here, it probably means something in your life feels challenging right now. Maybe it’s a relationship, work stress, or just feeling stuck and unsure of what’s next. Whatever it is, I want you to know—you don’t have to figure it out alone.
There are a lot of different approaches to therapy, and every therapist sees things a little differently. Some might focus on diagnosing a problem and putting a name to it—calling it depression, anxiety, or something else. That’s not how I see things. I don’t believe the problem lives in you. As Michael White, the founder of Narrative Therapy, said, “The person is not the problem, the problem is the problem.” That small shift in perspective can make all the difference. Because when we stop defining ourselves as the problem, solutions become a lot more accessible.
We’ve all had life experiences that shape how we think and feel—what feels safe, what feels scary, and what we believe we’re capable of. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, lost, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can be a space to step back, breathe, and start seeing things from a new perspective.
How I Work
More than anything, I want you to feel safe, heard, and cared for in our work together. My approach is guided by curiosity—curiosity about what you already know, what feels out of reach, and where you feel most confident. I think of therapy a bit like going on a nature walk together—turning over logs, looking around corners, noticing what’s been hiding in plain sight. It’s amazing what we start to see when we have another person looking with us.
If we work together, you’ll find that I don’t claim to have all the answers for you. That doesn’t mean I don’t have ideas—I do, and I’m happy to share them. But I truly believe that the right solution for you is already within you. Sometimes, it just takes a fresh perspective to bring it into focus.
