Individual Therapy

If you are new to therapy or returning to therapy, it is completely normal to be nervous or anxious about meeting a complete stranger for the first time and being more vulnerable than you have ever been. Many people do not know quite what to expect from their first therapy session and feel some ambivalence or apprehension about beginning the process of individual therapy. My role is to create a supportive and secure environment where you are able to freely feel, think, and be exactly who you are.
