My communication style

My communication style is open, honest, non-judgmental, and personable. It is important to me that my clients feel both safe and comfortable when talking with me about the things that they are going through. I take pride in my ability to connect with and develop a strong and healthy therapeutic alliance with my clients.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always wanted to help people, which is why I became a therapist. I learned early on the impacts of mental health and wanted to make a positive difference for those struggling. I have deep empathy and compassion, and I love seeing individuals reach their goals and begin living the life they've dreamed of.

My goals for you

It's important to me that you create goals that are meaningful to you. This begins by building a trusting relationship and learning about your needs. While I won't set goals for you, I'll guide you in goal development if needed. We'll measure progress throughout treatment and adjust as needed.

Our first session

Our first session is an opportunity to get a sense of your needs and goals. We'll spend time gathering information and getting to know each other to make sure we're a good fit. The first couple of sessions are really about building safety and trust in me and the process.
