My communication style

When working together in session, you can expect to feel welcomed, seen, and validated in your experiences. I support you in challenging patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may be contributing to discomfort. You are encouraged to enter the therapeutic space as your full self.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist began when I shadowed and trained with mental health professionals who demonstrated a deep love and passion for their work. Through those experiences, I found myself having similar desires to support and be a safe space for individuals needing a listening ear.

My goals for you

My hope is to support you in identifying areas of your life that you would like to see change or improve. Together, we will collaborate on your treatment goals and identify strategies for making positive progress in ways that allow you to feel empowered.

Our first session

During the first session, my hope is that you are able to develop a meaningful rapport that will assist us in creating a strong therapeutic alliance. I utilize the first sessions to acclimate you to my therapeutic approach, explore your personal history, and develop an initial understanding of your goals for treatment.
