My communication style

I find that having direct, honest conversations about challenges is very effective. I am able to engage even the most reluctant client in conversation. One of my strengths is working with clients who don't like the idea of 'treatment'. I prefer teamwork and problem-solving in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to others who felt misunderstood, and I have always been able to connect with them. I am passionate about helping others, and I do whatever it takes to make a difference.

My goals for you

I meet clients where they are. If they come in with specific goals, I start there. If they are overwhelmed with challenges, we take the time we need to look at options. I check in frequently with my clients to make sure I am meeting their needs and expectations.

Our first session

I am warm and engaging, and willing to answer questions and guide our first discussion. I am also willing to listen carefully to what a client is seeking and give them an idea of what to expect from our work together. With teens, I generally talk about outside interests and keep early sessions pretty low-key.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
