My communication style

My communication style is warm, honest, and down-to-earth. I aim to create a space where you can show up fully as yourself and speak freely—including using your full vocabulary (yes, cursing is absolutely welcome). I keep things real, supportive, and collaborative, with a mix of compassion, humor when it fits, and gentle honesty when it’s helpful.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist started mid-life after a few unexpected turns—life’s GPS definitely had a different route in mind. I’ve always been drawn to understanding people and helping others. Over time, I learned there are many routes to the same desired destination. In therapy, I see myself as a co-pilot here to support along the way.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by noticing and challenging unhelpful thought patterns, especially that inner voice that can be overly critical, unkind, or just plain unhelpful. Together, we work on building practical tools, new perspectives, and healthier ways of responding so you can feel more grounded and in control.

Our first session

In our first session, my goal is to get a general understanding of what’s bringing you in and what you’re hoping will be different. We’ll talk about your best hopes for therapy, what feels most important right now, and begin to shape a plan that fits your needs. It’s also a chance for you to get a feel for me and see if it feels like a good fit.
