My communication style

The tone I create is calm, grounded, and real. Clients feel safe to be themselves without judgment, but also know they'll be challenged when needed. You'll have space to process thoughts and emotions while being held accountable to your goals—a supportive, collaborative dynamic focused on clarity and purpose.

My journey to mental healthcare

Witnessing the impact of severe mental illness within my own family inspired my career as a therapist. I'm driven by the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families facing similar challenges, promoting healing, reducing stigma, and fostering hope and resilience.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting as a collaborative, evolving process. We start by building trust and clarity, identifying what brings you to therapy and what you'd like to change. We define clear, realistic goals aligned with your values, revisiting and adjusting them as needed to stay relevant to your growth.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll get to know each other and begin creating a space of safety and trust. I'll ask questions to understand what brings you here, share how I work, and help you clarify what you hope to gain. We'll collaboratively set thoughtful, achievable goals at a pace that feels right for you.

I identify as...
