My communication style

I work in a really relaxed and sometimes fun environment. I like to keep all my clients engaged and let them usually take the lead on therapy.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to be a therapist when I was young and diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. I was invited to have a conversation with a therapist when I was struggling with accepting and dealing with my new diagnosis. It was a therapist that I saw who made me want to help and make a difference in others' lives.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting with my clients pretty directly. With younger clients, I will bring in parents to help guide the client with the goal we are working on. I will gently remind them of what we are focusing on and what we are working towards feeling.

Our first session

First sessions are usually spent doing intakes and getting to know the client. I will bring fun cards to the session and begin to build trust with my client.
