My communication style

For each session, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where you can decide the focus of the session. We will spend time exploring and processing your concerns while also developing helpful skills to calm your body and mind. These skills will help you to feel more in control of your thoughts and feelings.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up, I had a lot of people and professionals who supported me and helped me to meet my goals. This experience led me to want to give back in some capacity. I majored in psychology and religious studies, which introduced me to the world of mental health. I then went on to graduate school, focusing more on helping others through therapy.

My goals for you

Goals are made collaboratively. We take time during one of our first sessions to discuss why you are coming to therapy and what you would like to get out of it. We take time to really talk about what life will look like once you meet those goals. In each session, we touch on those goals a little bit.

Our first session

During the first session, we spend time going over the history of past therapy experiences and what brings you to therapy now. We also talk about initial goals and what the therapy experience will be like. This is a time for you to ask me questions about therapy or the process.
