My communication style

I create a supportive, non-judgmental environment for you to understand your self and create change. I listen closely, allowing you time to reflect and gather your thoughts, and encourage you to process at your own pace.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into becoming a therapist began with being curious about the how the human mind processes and attempts to develop solutions to life's challenges. I also care about people and firmly believe that we can change, feel more content in our daily world, and be at peace with self and others.

My goals for you

Together, we will create goals that are meaningful to you. Goals can change over time as you develop more insights and coping skills, requiring us to change direction. We will collaborate and continue to address what is most important to you.

Our first session

Our first session is getting to know each other, why you chose to enter psychotherapy. I encourage people to go at their own pace, knowing that not everything needs to be discussed in the first session. Therapy can be simply about problem solving, but it also requires more insight and additional skills. It is a process and we will work together.
