My communication style

I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, space for clients. I've been called "radically authentic." I've lived in several other countries so I'm pretty accepting of other cultures. I don't shy away from difficult discussions and I can acknowledge my place of racial privilege without taking offense.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I love watching people grow and become the best version of themselves.

My goals for you

I ask my clients what their goals are for therapy and how they'd know when they achieved them. We'll talk about what you would want your life to look like and identify the steps to get there.

Our first session

The first session is usually about information gathering and getting to know each other. I'll ask what brings you in and I'll probably ask about your autobiographical information.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
• Interfaith
