My communication style

My communication style is informal and approachable. I don’t believe in lecturing; you won’t be talked at. Instead, we’ll have real conversations where you can share your thoughts freely, without judgment or the need to edit yourself.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a therapist began with a dream to be a Marine. Service to others has always been at my core. I show up for clients the way I was taught to do for my fellow Marines—never leaving anyone behind and working together to make the world safer.

My goals for you

We set goals together, you’re in charge of your life. You’re in the driver’s seat, setting the pace and direction. I’m like a sherpa, walking beside you and offering guidance and support as you work toward your goals. Achieving goals might be hard and require discomfort, but you don't have to be uncomfortable alone.

Our first session

If I’m doing my job right, a first session with me feels like a comfortable conversation. You’ll leave with a clear sense of how therapy works and the confidence that you’re taking the first steps toward the changes you want.
