My communication style

I am a very collaborative person and am overall easygoing. One of my strengths as a therapist is the ability to connect with a variety of people! I believe I am warm and empathetic, but I am also able to challenge my clients' thinking and perspectives when needed.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a teen, I was part of mission trips with my church youth group. From these experiences, I knew I wanted to go into a career focused on helping people heal from the hardships of this life. In college, I chose to major in psychology and sociology because human behavior was of great interest to me!

My goals for you

I believe it is the client's job to determine the goals for therapy, but I will come alongside them to help determine the objectives connected to that goal. I like to check in frequently with my clients regarding the progress of their determined goals.

Our first session

During the first session, I focus on rapport building as well as completing the initial assessment and treatment plan. While the session is largely focused on information gathering, I like to end by giving a homework assignment geared toward one of their identified goals.

I identify as...
