How long are therapy sessions?

Standard sessions are 53 minutes. Extended sessions are available upon request.

How long does therapy usually take?

It depends on your goals.

Some people come in for a few sessions to get support through a specific situation. Others stay longer to work through patterns that developed over years.

We will talk together about what feels right for you — I don’t rush the process, and I don’t keep people longer than needed. You always set the pace.

What does psychological assessment involve?

Assessment is a structured, collaborative process where we clarify strengths, challenges, and next steps. It typically includes:

  • A detailed interview
  • Standardized testing (tailored to your needs)
  • Questionnaires
  • A clear, practical report
  • A feedback session where we review results together

My aim is to give you clarity, not a stack of scores.

What if I've never been to therapy before?

Many of my clients are new to therapy. It’s normal to feel uncertain or nervous.

My approach is warm, steady, and collaborative — you don’t need to know where to start. You just need to show up as you are.
