My communication style

I employ a thoughtful and adaptive communication style designed to foster a supportive and collaborative environment. With empathic communication, I seek to understand your experiences and emotions, ensuring you feel heard and validated. I use reflective listening to help you explore your thoughts and feelings more deeply.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist driven by a deep interest in understanding human behavior and supporting personal growth. I started at a residential treatment center counseling children who experienced trauma. From there, I focused on healing and keeping families together.

My goals for you

I help you establish and achieve meaningful goals throughout your therapeutic journey. Through collaborative goal setting, we identify your personal aspirations and challenges, ensuring goals are realistic and tailored to your needs. By breaking down larger objectives into manageable steps, you can track progress and celebrate achievements.

Our first session

I understand the first session can feel significant and sometimes daunting. I approach this initial meeting with sensitivity and care, creating a welcoming and safe environment. I begin by introducing myself and outlining the session structure. I encourage you to share your reasons for seeking therapy and any specific goals you have in mind.
