My communication style

I bring my authentic self to each session and do my best to create a relaxed and open atmosphere. Creating a natural, relaxed environment is my number one goal, which helps clients feel safe to open up and process their internal world.

My journey to mental healthcare

In my early twenties, I struggled with an eating disorder and body image issues, which led me to find a therapist for the first time. This propelled me on my healing journey, and I learned so much about myself and life in general through this process.

My goals for you

This is a collaborative process, and in our first session, we will explore what you would like to work on together. Sometimes I will give ideas, but for the most part, you choose what we focus on.

Our first session

I tend to ask more questions than usual in the first session, to get a good grasp on your life and what it is you need support with. I like to get to know what symptoms you are experiencing regularly. The first session is considered a consultation, and that means we are both assessing whether or not we are a good fit to work together.
