Frequently Asked Questions

  • Therapy is more than just talking—it's a process of deep exploration, realignment, and growth. Whether it’s facing fears through exposure and response prevention (ERP), deepening self-awareness through existential-humanistic work, or strengthening relationships through interpersonal work, we work together to open new space for real change.

  • Yes! Most clients start noticing shifts within a month, but therapy isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about creating meaningful, lasting change. Some challenges respond quickly to structured approaches like ERP for anxiety and OCD, while deeper relational and existential work often takes more time. The goal isn’t just symptom relief—it’s helping you build a life that feels more aligned, connected, and real.

  • Whatever is on your mind! Intrusive thoughts, anxiety, OCD, relationship struggles, feeling stuck or lost— nothing is too big or too small. If it matters to you, it matters here. Therapy is about exploring who you are, what you want, and what’s getting in the way.

  • It depends on what you're looking for. ERP for OCD and anxiety often brings results in a few months, while deeper existential or relational work is a longer process. Therapy isn’t linear—some sessions bring clarity quickly, while others lay the foundation for lasting change.

  • Therapy isn’t just talking—it’s active, engaged work. Some sessions focus on challenging fear through ERP, others on navigating difficult emotions, and some explore patterns playing out in real time between us.

    Therapy shifts as you do, always moving toward what matters most to you.

  • Yes—what you share stays between us, unless there’s a serious safety concern that we need to address together. Therapy works because it’s built on trust, honesty, and a space where you can be fully yourself.

  • If you’re stuck, anxious, struggling in relationships, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy is a space to explore and move forward. My approach is shaped by the wisdom of Dr. Irvin Yalom, Dr. Victor Yalom, Dr. Steven Hayes, and Dr. Reid Wilson, blending deep existential inquiry with practical, evidence- based strategies. If you’re curious, it’s worth trying.

  • Start with someone who actually has the training to help with what you're going through. If you’re dealing with relationship issues, for example, you’ll want a therapist who’s trained in couples therapy—not just someone who does general talk therapy. Credentials matter. And so does the connection. The right therapist will meet you where you’re at, make you feel seen, and create space to explore without pressure or judgment. It's a mix of professional know-how and human connection—and both are essential.

  • You don’t need to have the answers—that’s what therapy is for. Whether you bring a major concern or just a vague feeling that something is off, we’ll figure it out together.
