My communication style

I see myself as a mirror, meeting you with compassion, mindfulness, and unconditional positive regard. I believe that to truly listen, one needs to be silent. I create an environment where you feel heard, respected, and affirmed. A positive therapeutic alliance helps the process toward progress.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've dedicated myself to helping others get better. Providing a safe, non-judgmental space that grows self-understanding, self-acceptance, and self-compassion propels me in this field. Collaborating with clients to promote new ways of understanding pain and developing insight makes therapy come alive.

My goals for you

Having a clear objective can lead to progress. I collaborate with you to identify what you want to work toward, creating a sense of direction. Having goals in place makes tracking progress easier. I often encourage SMART goals, as these can be highly motivating and provide strength for self-challenge and progress.

Our first session

Therapy for beginners can feel awkward and unnerving. I create a safe environment where you feel heard, respected, and affirmed. You can expect appropriate attention, empathy, mindfulness, and unconditional positive regard as you describe what brings you to therapy.
