Hi, I’m Nick! Many of the people I work with are trying to make sense of reactions that feel bigger than they “should” be, deal with anxiety or depression, handle relationship concerns, or may be neurodivergent. Some are working through the impact of trauma. Regardless, I tailor my interventions to what would be most helpful for you, individually. However, more than any specific technique, I focus on building a steady, collaborative relationship. Therapy with me is a space where you can slow down and simply breathe. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. We begin where you are.

The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and to begin understanding what’s bringing you in. You can expect a mix of conversation with some structure. I’ll ask questions about what’s been feeling difficult and your history, as well as what you hope might change. There’s no pressure to share everything at once, either! We’ll also talk about what therapy might look like moving forward and make sure it feels like a good fit. My goal in the first session is to begin building a foundation of trust. Many people feel nervous at first, which is completely normal.

If you’re looking for a space where you don’t have to perform or have everything figured out, we’ll likely work well together. I value curiosity and honesty. We can take the time to understand what’s not serving you anymore, and begin shifting in a different direction.
