My communication style

My communication style is calm and relaxing. I strive to get clients comfortable enough to talk about anything with me.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist was completely unexpected. I started college not really having a clear direction I clearly wanted. In my first psychology class, the professor kept talking about her clients and how she had seen growth. She and I became close, so I asked her how she became a therapist. After that, I made this my major.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is like a partnership. The client decides what goals they want to achieve, and I assist them in defining and meeting these goals.

Our first session

My first session with you will consist of you telling me how you've been feeling, any difficult circumstances that may influence those feelings, and me coming up with an initial plan to help ease some of the tension you feel. If you aren't comfortable with opening up, we can just get to know each other and go over some coping skills.
