I utilize approaches that best serve an individual client's process, including but not limited to Cognitive-Behavioral, Narrative, Psychodynamic, and Solution-focused.

My communication style

I intend to provide a therapeutic space that encourages self-discovery, safety, growth, and compassion.

My journey to mental healthcare

I believe I was called to this work as a way to share my innate desire to inspire others through the use of our mutual insight, skills, and creativity.

I approach goal-setting in the spirit of collaboration, self-determination, and flexibility.
