My communication style

My communication style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I create a safe and welcoming space where you can speak freely without judgment, while also offering honest reflections and supportive challenges to help you grow. I aim to balance empathy with structure—so you always feel heard, while also gaining new insight.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I witnessed the transformative power of emotional connection and wanted to help others experience that healing. My own journey through understanding attachment and relationships deepened my commitment to this work and shaped my compassionate, evidence-based approach.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by working collaboratively to identify clear, meaningful objectives and then using evidence-based approaches to guide progress. Whether we're working on emotional regulation, improving communication, healing attachment injuries, or strengthening relationship dynamics.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll focus on understanding what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I'll ask questions to learn about your story, relationships, and current challenges. This is also your chance to ask questions and see if we're a good fit. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard and hopeful.
