My communication style

My communication style is compassionate, genuine, and warm. I create a welcoming, non-judgmental space where you feel safe and comfortable to open up. I work to ensure emotional safety and establish an environment where you feel listened to and understood.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I wanted to make a meaningful difference in people's lives. My motivation stems from witnessing the transformative impact therapy can have. Believing that everyone has the capacity for positive change and to create a fulfilling life drives me to do this work.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is collaborative. It's important to me that you play a central role in determining what you'd like to work on and what issues you'd like to address. This process ensures that established goals represent your individual needs and help guide our work together.

Our first session

Our first session is a time to get to know each other, build rapport, and learn about your strengths and challenges. I may ask what brought you to therapy, about recent life events, symptoms you're experiencing, and general questions to understand your background. It's also your time to ask questions and share what feels important.
