Gentle path representing the journey of therapy

In our first session

We'll get to know each other. I'll ask about your therapy goals, and you can ask me anything about my approach or background to feel comfortable.

You're in control

You decide what and when to share. There's no pressure to discuss painful topics before you're ready; just let me know if something doesn't feel right.

This is your personal journey

I'll listen without judgment as we focus on your self-discovery, growth, and healing. We'll explore what works uniquely for you, honoring your individual path forward.

Cultural context matters

If you're navigating family expectations, cultural identity, or feeling caught between different worlds, we'll address how these experiences shape your challenges.

Healing isn't linear

Progress isn't always upward. Some days will feel productive, others harder—both are normal. I'll support you through every stage.

Therapy takes time

Real growth is gradual; it's not a quick fix. Your timeline is unique, and meaningful change happens step by step. I'll be with you every step of the way.
