Rare Insights Counseling is committed to providing a welcoming and affirming space for individuals of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. We stand in support of those who have been marginalized due to race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, age, ability, or health. Here, inclusivity isn’t just a value – it’s our foundation and commitment.

Our first session is where we get to know each other. It involves mostly me getting to know you and your story. For couples, we go through the history of the relationship up to your current issues.

For clients seeking individual sessions, you get to steer the ship. I will ask questions and help guide you, but you oversee our discussion. I want to know your background and what’s most pressing on your mind.

Like a Tyler Perry dramedy, we will go deep and have moments of levity. I take my work and your mental health very seriously; everything else is up for comedic fodder. Our sessions feel more like talking to a friend with expertise in mental health and a vested interest in your betterment.

There is no timeline for healing. Several factors will dictate this for you: how acute your presenting issue is, how long you have been dealing with said issue, and how quickly you want relief. Initially, I tend to work with clients more intensely to create momentum and stabilize them, effectively truncating their time in therapy. I’m a delight, but most people don’t want to be in treatment forever, which is understandable.

Let’s get you feeling better; if you want to keep coming in, we can work that out. The idea is to empower and equip my clients – so they don’t need to see me forever.

I have been working with couples and individuals for over 10 years now.

I’m hilarious. I have a way of making therapy seem less contrived.

I also believe in my bones that everything makes sense in its context, and that helps to reduce my clients’ feelings of shame that can arise when dealing with deep-seated issues.

I don’t think I will ever grow tired of hearing people’s stories. I love people, and I am aware of the immense privilege of hearing their stories.
