My communication style

Clients often describe me as easy to talk to and someone they feel comfortable with quickly. I communicates with warmth, honestly, curiosity and compassion. I welcome questions, feedback, humor,, and open conversation because I want therapy to feel like a genuine partnership where you can be yourself without judgement.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a therapist grew from a genuine interest in children development and the ways our experiences shape who we become. Through my work with children, families, teens and young adults, I have seen how powerful it can be to have a supportive person who listens without judgement and helps you make sense of what you are going through.

My goals for you

We can begin by identifying what you hope will be different as a result of therapy and what meaningful progress looks like for you. From there, we work together to break larger goals into manageable steps, develop practical coping and communication skills, and build awareness of patterns that may be getting in the way.

Our first session

Our first session is an opportunity to build rapport and being understanding what brings you to therapy. I will ask about your current concerns, your goals, and giving you space to share what you feel comfortable sharing. My hope is that you leave your first session feeling heard, comfortable, and with a clearer sense ho how we can work together.
