My communication style

I am a good active listener and assertive in communicating that I am aware of your needs. I believe everyone needs to know that their ideas, thoughts, and beliefs are very important. I love my job, and I believe that shows.

My journey to becoming a therapist began early, comforting a classmate who was crying in kindergarten. People have always felt comfortable sharing with me. I lead with empathy and respect, believing healing happens through connection and presence, one person at a time.

My goals for you

I am attentive to the information conveyed in the assessment. I begin with the challenges a client reports in a broad frame and work towards funneling down these goals, all the while thinking about different approaches and interventions that could possibly be beneficial. I then triage goals thoughtfully.
