My communication style

I believe therapy is a mutual assessment process. I focus on building rapport, setting clear and achievable goals, and communicating clearly and effectively. I tend to be a 'to-the-point' therapist and am not afraid to have difficult, honest conversations.

My journey to mental healthcare

I genuinely enjoy working with people from all walks of life, listening, guiding, and problem-solving together to help you find your footing. I have always been humbled to find myself in a position to be a part of so many people's stories—and believe I learn equally from my clients.

My goals for you

Goals are client-driven and solution-focused. I believe goals are important to the change process, and reflecting, reviewing, and editing these as we go keeps things moving forward. My job is to essentially put myself out of a job!

Our first session

At our initial session, clients should be prepared to have some discussions about their current challenges and strengths, and some ideas of goals they want to work towards. We can refine these as we build rapport and plan our care.
