My communication style

My goal as a therapist is to provide a calm environment where people feel heard and can explore options for themselves.

My journey to mental healthcare

I wanted to become a vet and started in pre-med, but I took a few psychology classes and just knew I was in the right place. I started as a case manager working with clients getting out of the hospital. I have done different work throughout my career, but I always come back to wanting to work as an individual therapist supporting people.

My goals for you

I like to ask clients about their goals, what their goals would look like when they are attained, and to check in from time to time to see what progress they feel they are making, and what changes they might want to make.

Our first session

The first session is a time for me to get to know you and you to get to know me. I like to get some history, get an idea of what the client wants to work on, what they need from a therapist, and what their expectations from therapy are.
