My communication style

Together, we co-create a safe space that allows you to feel comfortable sharing your difficult or traumatic experiences. My hope is that you will be honest and open with me about what is helpful and not helpful. Therapy doesn't always feel good, but you will not be alone.

My journey to mental healthcare

I loved dancing and was also very interested in psychology. When I left dancing, I felt called to pursue a career as a therapist. I became an early childhood mental health and developmental specialist, working with new families and infants. I studied attachment theory and use somatic forms to listen to the wisdom of the body.

My goals for you

I start by asking what has caused you to reach out for therapy and what you would like your life to look like. I will send you some screening tools and a life wheel that will help us see the areas of your life that need attention. From here, we will develop some goals and decide on objectives that will support them.

Our first session

I'll want to know why you are seeking therapy and learn a little more about significant experiences in your life. I will share some information about myself. Because this is a relationship, it has to feel right. It is important that you feel comfortable with my style so you are able to relax and feel safe to share.
