My communication style

In therapy, I strive to be respectful of you as my client while maintaining a direct communication style to keep our conversations open and honest. I welcome questions! I find it helpful to set up a way for us in session to be able to stop the other for clarification as I feel this helps us with mutual understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey toward therapy began with my first psychology course in college. I knew therapy was for me! I could use my empathy and develop my skills to offer my unique thoughts to others for self-calming and growth. My training includes certification in CBT as well as training in solution-focused therapy, DBT, and motivational interviewing skills.

My goals for you

Successful care includes what you want to accomplish. Symptom reduction, an increase in helpful coping skills, and problem-solving are all ways we can work together to help reduce your stress and discomfort.

Our first session

During the first session, I review legalities (what is and is not involved in therapy) and work to complete a solid intake assessment to gather as much information from you as I can. Most importantly, I ask directly what you are seeking from therapy and what you hope to achieve in a session.
