My communication style

I like to create a soothing and open environment for clients to feel safe and comfortable to be vulnerable. Therapy can be full of new experiences and unknowns, and I want to build the tone for growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always loved to talk to people. I enjoy learning more about each person's brain and what makes them tick. I love to ask questions and explore certain areas while also learning more about their culture, family dynamics, and experiences that make them who they are.

My goals for you

Goal setting is one of my favorite aspects of therapy. We collaborate on what the needs of the individual are. I like to use SMART goals in order to measure progress and accountability. Goals get modified through the process, and it is beneficial to have a road map for what we would like to achieve together.

Our first session

Clients should expect to feel safe, comfortable, and educated. I like to foster transparency and an open forum to ask questions, build a solid rapport, and have a thorough history taking. I want clients to feel heard, supported, validated, and cared for.
