My communication style

My goal is that you feel validated. I strive to support you and validate your feelings and experiences as real. I wish to create a safe space to make connections and learn tools to decrease the intensity of your discomfort. Seeking therapy is vulnerable and brave, and I hope to encourage that by normalizing the process.

My journey to mental healthcare

Initially, working with children drove me toward social work. I began in the foster care system, then moved to adoptions. From there, I worked in a nonprofit agency providing casework and counseling, where my true career began in working with adults in a clinical setting. I have been providing counseling to adults ever since.

My goals for you

I provide an unbiased perspective that offers alternative ways of experiencing your situations. In a safe space to process and make connections, you are able to disrupt the patterns you are stuck in. I encourage you to connect with your authentic self and provide tools to increase your confidence and intuitive skills.

Our first session

My goal is to offer you time to share what brings you to seek out therapy. I want to understand your perspective and what your goals and priorities are. I want to normalize this experience and offer a gentle approach to beginning your therapy.
