My communication style

I strive to be a good listener and understand what brings you to therapy. I use a conversational style to help you feel relaxed and not anxious about the process, and I focus on helping you meet your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to therapy because I struggled with depression as an adolescent. My first counseling job was at group homes for teenagers, and I wanted to help young people who struggled as I did.

My goals for you

I ask you to share your goals and expectations for therapy, and then outline my approach tailored to those goals. With couples, I start by teaching effective communication skills to improve their relationship and help them resolve identified issues.

Our first session

I explain that I'm required to complete an intake to get a thorough background, but this isn't how therapy will proceed. I encourage you to ask questions, commit to 8-12 sessions, and understand that making progress takes time.
