My communication style

My communication style is warm, honest, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I believe in creating a space where you can speak openly and feel truly heard while also receiving thoughtful, direct feedback when it can support your growth. I strive to communicate with empathy, respect, and authenticity throughout the therapeutic process.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a counselor grew from a desire to do work that felt deeply meaningful and centered on helping others. After a career in technology and business, I pursued my master’s degree in professional counseling and discovered a passion for understanding how trauma, relationships, and life experiences shape the way we see ourselves.

My goals for you

I help clients identify meaningful goals by exploring what they want to change, what may be getting in the way, and what progress looks like for them. We work collaboratively to develop realistic steps, build practical coping and emotional regulation skills, and address underlying patterns that may be keeping them stuck.

Our first session

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know one another and begin understanding what brought you to therapy. We’ll discuss your concerns, history, goals, and what you hope to gain from counseling while beginning to identify areas where I can support you.
