My communication style

I try to create an environment where we work together towards the client's goals at the speed of trust. I understand it can be intimidating for some, while others are highly motivated to change. This is when I heavily depend on feedback from the person sitting in front of me instead of the person "society" tells them to be.

My journey to mental healthcare

What drives me to be providing psychotherapy treatment is the lifelong journey of learning and evolving with other people. I haven't found a more impactful way to be of service than being present with another human who just needs someone to care about them unconditionally. I find it incredibly enriching to be able to provide that for someone else.

My goals for you

I approach it with a flexible and dynamic mindset since our lives can change drastically, which can greatly impact our path to progress. I think it's important to revisit goals periodically and adjust them as needed.

Our first session

The first session's goal is to first and foremost see if we are a good match to work together. It is a professional relationship in which both people need to sync up on a level for treatment to be effective. I default to having an organic and authentic conversation at the beginning to be as time-efficient as possible.
