My communication style

I always meet the tone of the client, but I am a more upbeat, energetic person. I like to laugh and have fun when appropriate. My number 1 priority is that the client feels supported, so I am always flexible to the needs of my client.

My journey to mental healthcare

I think in some ways I have always been a therapist. My joy in life is connecting with people and helping people feel like they are reaching their full potential.

My goals for you

I think goal setting is best when it's a collaborative approach! I enjoy talking about goals with clients and really get excited thinking about what can change for them in their lives. I do think of goal setting as a living, flexible document, but see accomplishing those goals as an important part of treatment!

Our first session

My most important focus is that the client feels comfortable with me, feels like it is a good therapeutic match, feels safe, and that we connect. We also go through some background, assessing their needs and setting goals.
