My communication style

My communication style is calm, direct, curious, and nonjudgmental. Sessions are conversational and collaborative, with space to process difficult experiences while also identifying useful next steps. Clients can expect thoughtful questions, honest feedback, and a focus on what will help them move forward.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to therapy by an interest in how people make sense of difficult experiences, relationships, and major life changes. I’m motivated by helping people recognize strengths they may have overlooked, understand the patterns shaping their lives, and discover practical ways to create meaningful change.

My goals for you

Goal setting is collaborative and practical. We identify what you want to be different, what progress would look like in everyday life, and the small changes that could move you in that direction. Goals can evolve as therapy progresses, and we regularly check whether our work is helping you get where you want to go.

Our first session

The first session focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what has been difficult, and what you would like to change. We’ll discuss relevant history, what you have already tried, what is working, and your strengths. Together, we’ll identify an initial direction and goals for therapy.
