My communication style

My communication style starts with curiosity and understanding. As we build trust and our therapeutic relationship grows, you can expect me to be more direct, offer honest perspective, and gently challenge patterns that may be getting in the way of your growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this work through witnessing how life’s challenges can impact a person’s overall well-being. I believe we all experience difficult seasons in life, and no one should have to navigate them alone. I wanted to be someone who could offer support, understanding, and a safe space as others navigate their own journey.

My goals for you

My goal is to help you build a personalized “coping skills toolbox” filled with strategies you can confidently use to manage emotions and create a life that feels meaningful, fulfilling, and true to you. We’ll practice skills together to discover what works best for you.

Our first session

Nervous about a first session? that’s completely normal. Opening up to someone you’ve never met can make vulnerability feel difficult. Just know that you’re meeting someone who is there to help. We’ll discuss what brought you to therapy, what's important to you, your goals, and how I can best support you. Before you know it the hour will be over.
