My communication style

My communication style as a therapist is insightful and empowering, aiming to help clients gain fresh perspectives while fostering their sense of capability and self-worth. I often incorporate humor in our sessions to create a relaxed, approachable atmosphere, making challenging topics feel more accessible and encouraging open, honest dialogue.

My journey to mental healthcare

My career started by advocating for children and adolescents impacted by domestic violence. While pursuing a graduate degree, I worked in home healthcare. After earning a master’s in social work, I transitioned into a role as a behavioral health specialist. I completed clinical supervision and became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

My goals for you

Each client's experience in therapy is individualized, and homework is implemented at their own pace. As a clinician, I assess which therapeutic models work best. Together, we will outline initial steps and set collaborative goals to guide your therapeutic journey, ensuring you feel comfortable and empowered as we move forward.

Our first session

During your first therapy session, you can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where your concerns and goals are discussed openly. We will begin by exploring your reasons for seeking therapy and gathering background information to better understand your unique circumstances.
