My communication style

There is strength in vulnerability, but to do so, it helps if you feel safe. I provide a safe, supportive environment and genuine care that your needs are being met. I have deep gratitude for allowing me to support you with empathy, understanding, and absolutely no judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I taught in the public school system for a decade before I trained to be a therapist. I have a passion for teaching others, supporting folks in their endeavors, and pursuing my interests. I also come from a personal perspective of dealing with anxiety, loss, and a lifetime of wanting to support others in their journey of healing.

My goals for you

After establishing an understanding of what is bringing you to therapy, we work together to establish clear, measurable goals that are relevant to your concerns. We break those goals into realistic steps and provide tools that work for your life and your needs.

Our first session

During our first session, we'll get to know each other. I'll ask questions to understand what's been going on and what you're hoping to get out of therapy, but there's no rush—share as much or as little as you're comfortable with. My goal is to create a space where you feel at ease, supported, and heard.
