My communication style

With a background in the performing and visual arts, I bring a unique perspective to my therapeutic practice. I believe in the power of human connection and the transformative nature of therapy.

My journey to mental healthcare

I’ve always been drawn to what lives beneath the surface—the unspoken patterns and quiet struggles. Becoming a therapist felt like a natural extension of that curiosity. I believe real change happens when people feel seen, understood, and safe enough to explore what’s hard.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting as a collaborative, flexible process rooted in curiosity. We explore what’s beneath the surface, clarify what truly matters, and shape goals that feel meaningful and realistic. I focus on pacing, breaking things down when needed, and honoring resistance as part of the process.

Our first session

A first session with me is a space to slow down and begin where you are. We’ll explore what’s bringing you in, what feels important, and what you’re hoping for—at your pace. There’s no pressure to share everything at once, just a focus on helping you feel comfortable, understood, and supported.
