My communication style

Feeling safe is essential in therapy, and I use trauma-informed and recovery-oriented communication. My communication reinforces your self-worth and focuses on your values. At times, I may use a more direct approach to address discrepancies between behaviors and your identified goals or values.

My journey to mental healthcare

I saw firsthand the benefits therapy can bring to one's quality of life and relationships with themselves and others, inspiring me to become a therapist. Having social support can make a tremendous impact on someone's ability to build and maintain hope for their future, as well as in facing the challenges we encounter.

My goals for you

Ensuring we are on the same page about your goals, what is and is not working, and clarifying the results you are looking for through open communication is the best way I support clients. In a collaborative process, we can define realistic action steps for where you are at and where you would like to be.

Our first session

In our first session, I review current concerns, your expectations and goals for therapy, and historical information related to your life experiences and social supports. This helps me understand you as the expert while identifying approaches and support I can offer for your unique goals.
