My communication style

Being client-centered means having flexibility and transparency in our relationship. Therapy can be very difficult, and for clients who are here for the first time, it can be daunting. I try to provide the safest environment I can and challenge myself when necessary.

My journey to mental healthcare

The world around me has always been a great place of connection. Making people feel less alone, and more empowered, and being a conduit of change is what called me to and keeps me doing the work. I also love learning from others, and being able to share in healing is a bonus!

My goals for you

Goal setting is the top priority. I enjoy hearing the client's proposed future and helping to identify areas in need of more structure.

Our first session

I hope to dig deep with my clients over time. This is YOUR therapy. Though I want to know about you, I will also open the floor for you to ask questions about my practice as well.
