My communication style

Communication and active listening are vital components in my practice. My prior clinical experience has allowed me to determine that transparency, openness, and approachability to cultivate transformative connection. As our work continues, reflections on our communication style will allow for quality and improve in areas deemed necessary.

My journey to mental healthcare

Prior to being a provider, human behavior, thoughts, and emotions are the pillars that connection all humans .Through my own personal mental health journey, therapy has been a place where I discovered, changed, and learned the necessities for a values driven life. Now, I hope to provide services that reflect those values learned.

I often allow clients to drive the topic of the session while building tangible skills, comprehensive insight from early development to adult hood. As a provider, we steer away from giving advice,

Our first session

Our first session will be one where I listen and explore what is bringing you to therapy. This will be an opportunity not only for me to better understand you, but for you to gain a sense of my approach, style, and therapeutic landscape. Together, we will discuss the therapeutic alliance as the main framework for a therapeutic foundation.
