Taking the first step toward mental health support can feel daunting. I understand—reaching out requires courage. In this guide, I'll walk you through how to connect with me for counseling services, what to expect from our work together, and how to make this process as comfortable as possible.
What I Can Offer
As a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I provide:
Individual counseling sessions focusing on anxiety, stress, depression, and personal growth
Online therapy through secure platforms, giving you flexibility and privacy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) integrated with mindfulness and existential approaches
Crisis support when you're facing urgent emotional challenges
My approach is authentic and empathetic. I believe therapy works best when it's tailored to you—not following a rigid script, but adapting to what you genuinely need.

Share What Brings You Here
When reaching out, briefly describe:
What you're struggling with
What you hope to achieve through counseling
Your availability and preferences (video, phone, etc.)
There's no need for elaborate explanations—just what feels right to share.
Schedule Your First Session
We'll arrange a convenient time for our initial conversation. This first session helps us:
Get to know each other
Discuss your concerns in depth
Create a plan that fits your needs

What to Expect
During Our First Session
I'll listen without judgment as you share your story. We'll explore:
What's happening in your life right now
What patterns you've noticed
What changes you want to see
Ongoing Work Together
Therapy is collaborative. You can expect:
Regular sessions at times that work for you
Practical tools for managing difficult emotions
A space to be authentic and vulnerable
Flexibility in our approach as your needs evolve
Making Therapy Work for You
Be Open and Honest
The more genuine you are, the more effective our work becomes. If something doesn't feel right, say so.
Set Clear Intentions
Think about what success looks like for you. Small, concrete goals often work better than vague aspirations.
Practice Between Sessions
Therapy extends beyond our meetings. Try the strategies we discuss and notice what helps.
Be Patient With Yourself
Change takes time. Celebrate small steps forward.
You're Not Alone
Seeking support isn't weakness—it's wisdom. Whether you're in crisis or simply want to understand yourself better, I'm here to help.
Contact me when you're ready to start this journey toward greater emotional wellness and self-understanding.
