FAQ

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

Therapy is beneficial for anyone who is experiencing emotional, psychological, or relational challenges. Whether you’re dealing with a specific issue, or just need a safe space to process life’s difficulties, therapy can help you gain clarity and find solutions.

What happens in the first session?

During the first session, we’ll talk about your history, goals, and what brings you to therapy. It’s an opportunity for you to ask any questions, and for me to explain my approach. We’ll also discuss logistics, such as session frequency and duration.

How long does therapy usually take?

The duration of therapy depends on individual goals and challenges. While some find progress in a few months, others benefit from longer-term support to fully address deeper concerns or sustain personal growth over time.

What issues can therapy help with?

Therapy can address various concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship issues, self-esteem challenges, and major life transitions. It provides tools, strategies, and a supportive environment to achieve personal growth.

How often will sessions occur?

Session frequency depends on your specific needs and goals. Many clients start with weekly sessions for consistency, but we can adjust to bi-weekly or monthly as progress continues or your situation evolves.

What if I don’t know where to start?

Feeling unsure is completely normal. Therapy begins with open conversations about your thoughts and feelings. I’ll guide you in identifying concerns and setting achievable goals, helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.
