Your questions, answered here:

My approach is flexible and centered around you. I believe you know yourself best, so therapy is guided by your goals, needs, and experiences. Rather than telling you what to do, I work alongside you to help you find strategies and solutions that feel right for your life.
Together, we can explore how early experiences, such as attachment wounds or childhood trauma, may have shaped your patterns and the way you relate to others.
I also incorporate practical approaches to support your growth and coping: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps manage thoughts, emotions, and experiences, while Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides tools for improving your emotional regulation skills and improving relationships.
I am also trained in EMDR, a therapy that helps process traumatic experiences. To learn more about EMDR, please visit https://www.emdria.org/about-emdr-therapy.

It’s completely normal to feel a little nervous if this is your first time trying therapy!
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, answer any questions you have, and see if we’re the right match to work together.
We’ll start by talking about your background and what’s been going on in your life—therapists often call this an “intake.” Basically, it helps me understand your challenges, symptoms, and what brought you to therapy.
Most importantly, we’ll focus on what you want to work on and what feels most important to you to start shaping a plan for your therapy journey.
