Hopefully, after reading my website and having a phone consultation, you will start to get a sense of whether I am the right therapist for you. I believe the best way to determine if we are a good fit is for you is to schedule an appointment and meet me in person. The relationship between therapist and client is incredibly important, so when we meet, ask yourself if you feel comfortable with me and if you can see yourself opening up to me. Building a relationship takes time, but my hope is that you begin to feel safe and understood early on.
