My communication style

My style is warm, kind, and open, with a touch of silliness. I'm not afraid to laugh and cry, and I sit with pain, fear, and joy. I tailor communication to the moment and work hard to build trust while making space to face challenges.

My journey to mental healthcare

I didn't originally study mental health—I pursued film because storytelling tapped into a deeply empathetic part of me. As I realized the competitive nature of the industry didn't align with who I am, I changed paths. Being a therapist is an essential part of who I am.

My goals for you

Treatment goals are a collaborative effort, developed together to ensure they're appropriate and meaningful. We establish goals at the beginning and adjust as needed, ensuring they reflect the work being done in therapy.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll cover basic information about you, including your history and mental health concerns. We'll discuss payment, confidentiality, and the risks and benefits of therapy. From there, we'll focus on establishing treatment goals collaboratively.
