My communication style

Clients feel safe with me and say our work feels collaborative. They're encouraged to share when something doesn't feel right, and I believe the more they practice in therapy, the more it shows up in how they communicate outside. My communication is open, honest, and warm.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always loved talking to people and asking about their lives, relationships, and friendships. It became clear while traveling that I wanted to be a therapist. Today, I feel grateful to be part of people's journeys and love this work because I get to learn more about myself in the process.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting by talking with you in the initial sessions about what you'd like to achieve. We periodically review goals and shift them based on what's happening in therapy.

Our first session

In the first session, you'll share your journey so I can get a landscape of your life. I'll ask about your family of origin, current relationships, goals, career, and your parents' relationship. It's a conversation about what made you into the person you are and helps me understand you better.
