My communication style

I commit to creating a safe space for my client to explore and become vulnerable and fully transparent, without feeling judged. Clients describe feeling heard and understood after our sessions together. I feel I am personable, warm, and encouraging.

My journey to mental healthcare

After teaching elementary and seeing the impact dysfunctional families have on children, I realized it was time to help adults become healthier. When adults are healthy, they are better positioned to create healthy relationships, utilize appropriate coping skills, and establish healthy boundaries.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting with clients is to help them articulate specific goals they would like to accomplish. This is often achieved by asking the client what life will look like for them after therapy.

Our first session

My first session is to reiterate a realistic view of how therapy works, which I would have shared during the initial consultation. Then I will usually ask the client to share whatever they would like to share with me. The first session is mainly about building a rapport with each other, creating a safe space, and exploring goals.
