WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

01

Free Initial Consultation Call

This is our first point of connection—a free 15–20 minute phone or video call. You’ll share what’s bringing you in, ask any initial questions, and get a feel for my approach as a therapist and relationship coach. Most importantly, this call helps us determine whether we’re a good fit so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

02

First Session: Relationship Mapping

Our first full session is all about gaining clarity. Whether you’re coming in as an individual or a couple, we take time to explore your story, the patterns that show up in moments of stress, the core needs or wounds driving your reactions, and the goals you’re hoping to reach. This collaborative “mapping” process helps us understand where you’ve been, where you are now, and where you want to go, giving us a grounded direction for our work together.

03

Ongoing Sessions: Continued Growth & Check-Ins

Therapy becomes a steady rhythm. In our ongoing sessions, we work through the themes that surface, strengthen emotional awareness, and build practical tools for healthier connection. We pause to check in—celebrating progress and adjusting goals—so the work stays aligned with your needs. Healing isn’t linear, but with steady support and intention, it becomes truly transformative.
