Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

What can I expect in a therapy session?
Each session is a unique opportunity for you to explore your feelings and experiences at your own pace. We’ll start by checking in on how you’re feeling, and you can share what’s on your mind. The session is guided by what feels right for you, without any pressure or agenda from me.

​

I wouldn’t know where to start. How do I begin?
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but that’s completely okay. You don’t need to have everything figured out. Just sharing what you’re feeling in the moment or any thoughts you’ve had about your experiences is a great place to begin. We’ll work together to explore what feels important to you.

​

What if my trauma is too much for you, or what if I’m too much?
It’s completely normal to worry about how your trauma might impact our work together. I want you to know that I am trained to support clients through difficult emotions and experiences. Your feelings and experiences are valid, and you are welcome just as you are. No matter how heavy your burdens may feel, we can navigate them together, and I’m here to ensure you feel safe and supported throughout the process.

​

What if it feels like too much to talk about?
It’s okay to feel that way. We can take things at a pace that feels comfortable for you. If something feels overwhelming, we can pause, shift focus, or even explore it in smaller pieces. The goal is to create a safe space for you to express yourself without pressure.

 

How long are the therapy sessions, and how often do they occur?
I offer 50 minute and sessions, typically on a weekly basis. This consistent time allows you to dive deeply into your thoughts and feelings while also creating space for reflection.

​

Is online therapy as effective as in-person sessions?
Yes, many clients find online therapy to be just as effective. The familiar environment of your home can provide comfort, allowing for deeper exploration and reflection. It’s about what feels best for you.

​

Do I have to share everything about my past?
No, you are never required to share anything you’re not comfortable with. Therapy is a safe space, and you can choose what to disclose at your own pace. Your comfort is paramount.

​​

How do I prepare for my first session?
To prepare for your first session (if working online) find a quiet and comfortable space where you feel safe to speak. You might want to reflect on your goals for therapy or any specific issues you'd like to discuss. Having a journal handy for post-session reflections can also be helpful but is in now way essential.

​

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP?

Therapy isn’t just about fixing problems; it’s about making space for growth, healing, and becoming the person you truly want to be.

 

If this resonates with you, I invite you to take that next step toward creating the space for your transformation.
