My communication style

I prioritize compassion and transparency, working at your pace to ensure you clearly understand and draw meaning from our conversations. You can expect active listening, curious questions, and reflections that privilege your story. When difficult moments arise, I'll join you with a calm and empathic demeanor.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began when I noticed how stress and worry affected people's relationships and ability to enjoy life. Through my work with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, and depression, I learned that we often feel stuck and don't see other possibilities. Witnessing the healing therapy provides strengthened my commitment to support others.

My goals for you

Therapy is a collaborative process where we clearly define the preferences you want in your life. Together, we identify goals that guide your path to change. This is fluid, and goals may shift as you notice progress or gain new insights about yourself.

Our first session

Our first meeting focuses on learning about each other. You'll share your story, hopes, and desired outcomes from therapy. Coming to therapy can stir nervousness, and our first appointment may feel foreign—this is normal. I'm here to guide you through the process and shape our work together through collaborative conversations.
