My communication style

I see therapy as a collaboration. You know your life better than anyone, and I come to you with experience in helping people heal and recover. Together we will make sure we are working on the right problem, choose a path toward healing that you are comfortable with, and we will work our way to your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I know that mental health recovery works, because that is what brought me to becoming a psychologist. My own therapy helped build my belief in recovery possible for everyone. My extensive work with trauma survivors helped me see that we all have the ability to overcome and heal. Resilience flourishes when we have the right help and support.

My goals for you

Often we know what to do, but we do not know how to do it. Or maybe we don't feel strong enough, wise enough or that we deserve a different outcome or feeling. I believe that everyone has strengths, and we will use them, or build them to change the internal or external problems that are keeping you from fully experiencing your life.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity to open the door to start the process of building hope and healing. The first session is a get to know you time, as well as you to me. It is critical that you feel respected to do this important work for yourself. If I am a good fit for you, we will discuss goals and possible psychotherapy treatments.
