My communication style

You can expect authenticity, candor, empathy, and humor in a very conversational-style hour. When we feel heard and seen, we reveal parts of ourselves, share vulnerabilities, and welcome connection. In those spaces, we can process shame and hurt, heal our wounds, and foster new and empowered ways to change ourselves and the experience of our lives.

My journey to mental healthcare

Therapy changed my own life in meaningful ways, and I'm endlessly fascinated by the human ability for resilience and survival. I'm grateful for the opportunity to help, and it is a privilege to be trusted with people's stories. At the end of the day, we are all the same, and we need the same things: to belong, to feel seen and heard, and to thrive.

My goals for you

Often, we seek therapy when struggling with one thing, only to discover that there is more to it than meets the eye. Establishing what you'd like to get out of the therapy experience is an important starting point, so through listening and dialoguing, we'll establish some working goals, knowing that they can evolve and shift as you do in your work.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll establish what brought you to therapy and why now is the right time. I'll ask a few questions to get a sense of who you are, and we'll discuss what the first few sessions that follow might look like as we start working together. Ideally, I'd like for you to leave with a sense of comfort, relief, and possibly hope.
