My communication style

I believe good communication is key in getting your needs met. I encourage you to ask questions and to clarify or correct me when needed. We work in partnership to help you flourish, and I strive to provide a warm and welcoming environment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I took my first psychology course as an elective and found myself fascinated by how the brain works and the influence it has on our emotions and behaviors. I'm honored and humbled to be able to do what I love and to help others improve their quality of life.

My goals for you

My initial focus is on creating a safe and non-judgmental space where you can share and process your emotions. This allows us to build trust while we work together to achieve the goals you have for yourself. You have full autonomy over what goals you want to pursue.

Our first session

The first session is largely focused on building trust and providing a safe place to express your thoughts and identify the areas for growth. I hope that you leave each of our sessions feeling better than when you arrived, and with something to reflect on until our next meeting.
