My communication style

My preferred communication style is to be personable and authentic. I focus heavily on nonjudgmental acceptance and curiosity. I also like to keep things moving, so I tend to ask questions often.

My journey to mental healthcare

I love to understand how people think and why they do the things they do. I wanted to understand the systems that people interact with and how this affects the way people think and feel. I have immersed myself in the world of counseling, consultation, and clinical case management.

My goals for you

I love to set goals—the more concrete and detailed, the better—but I realize that not everyone wants therapy to feel like a place for goal-setting and strong accountability. I prefer to get a feel for how you want to work on goal setting and checking progress.

Our first session

The first session is a time to get to know someone. I want to get a feel for your reason for seeking treatment, your past experiences, and your current hang-ups. You can get a feel for how easy it is to talk with me and decide whether I'm a good fit.
