My communication style

Very open communication and a feeling of safety where clients can feel vulnerable in therapy. I provide a holding environment where clients can feel free to express themselves without judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I truly believe 'you resist what in life will persist.' Therapy helps transform lives where these barriers to resistance can finally come down, and we can start promoting our best selves. I believe we all deserve the opportunity to promote our best selves in life, which is precious.

My goals for you

I offer solution-focused questions to have you reflect and then decide on your therapy goals. For instance, asking you, 'If you knew your life was getting better, what would that look like?' Hence, build on your goals based on your answers to this question.

Our first session

Questions regarding the reason for seeking treatment, establishing the therapeutic alliance, familiarizing you with therapy if you are seeking it for the first time, gathering pertinent psychosocial information, and thinking about goals that you would like to work on in therapy.
