My communication style

I value open communication and creating a space where you can feel supported, understood, and free to be yourself. I’ll listen with curiosity and empathy, while giving you room to reflect and make sense of your experiences. I also believe therapy doesn’t always have to feel so heavy—when appropriate, I like to bring in a little humor and lightness.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into therapy began with a love for people and their stories. Working with trauma survivors has shown me the power of feeling truly seen. I believe healing isn’t always a straight line, but we all have the capacity to grow and heal. I bring warmth and vulnerability to the work, knowing you don’t have to have it all figured out to start.

My goals for you

I see therapy as a team effort—we’ll figure things out together and focus on what feels important to you. Whether you’re working on relationships, self-esteem, or simply trying to feel a little more like yourself, we’ll take it one step at a time. As you learn, grow, and occasionally hit a few plot twists along the way, we’ll adjust as we go.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about what’s bringing you in, and figure out where to start. Feeling nervous is totally normal—we’re all human here! There’s no perfect way to do therapy, and you don’t need to show up with everything figured out. We’ll take it one step (and maybe a few plot twists) at a time.
