My communication style

While I communicate directly, laughter is often heard in my sessions as a way to relieve heavy emotional stress. I build strong therapeutic alliances so our work together is authentic and meaningful. I want you to feel understood and supported, not just assessed and analyzed.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist after receiving mental health support myself several times in my life. I understand what it's like on both sides of the therapy room and want to show people they have the strength within them to heal. I have a passion for understanding others and paying forward the tools I've learned.

My goals for you

Setting goals is like going on a road trip. You're in the driver's seat, and I hold the map to help figure out how to get there. My job is to help you make sense of the roadmap. I encourage progress by taking things one step at a time and discussing realistic, attainable methods of reaching our destination.

Our first session

We'll discuss why you've chosen to pursue therapy. You'll be met with warmth, validation, and probably a little laughter. Once I understand you and what you want from therapy, we'll identify and practice coping skills, discuss your expectations, and create a treatment plan individual to you and your experiences.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
