Frequently Asked Questions

Counseling and therapy provide a space to reflect, process challenges, and work toward healing, growth, and greater clarity. It is a supportive relationship where you can explore thoughts, emotions, patterns, and life experiences in a safe and intentional way.

These terms are often used interchangeably. In general, both involve talking through challenges, gaining insight, and working toward healing and growth. Some people use “counseling” to describe shorter-term or more focused support, while “therapy” can sometimes refer to deeper or longer-term work.

Therapy can help with anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, relationship challenges, recurring patterns, self-understanding, grief, and personal growth. It can also be a place to process a specific situation or better understand what may be keeping you stuck.

My approach is supportive, relational, and growth-oriented. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, person-centered therapy, and other approaches that help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and patterns. I aim to offer both steady support and practical help toward positive change.

No. Many people begin therapy with a general sense that something feels heavy, confusing, or unresolved. Part of the process is helping you better understand what is going on and where to begin.

No. People do not need to be Catholic or religious to feel welcome here. I work with clients from different backgrounds and experiences, and I want the counseling space to feel respectful, supportive, and grounded.

Yes, if the client would like it to be. Faith can be incorporated in a way that feels natural and client-led. For some clients, that may include prayer or conversations about how faith connects to their life and struggles. For others, it may simply mean working with a therapist who has a Catholic background.

Therapy is generally confidential, which means what you share is kept private within legal and ethical limits. Those limits typically include situations involving safety concerns, abuse reporting, or court orders. These are discussed more fully during informed consent.
