My communication style

My goal is to develop genuine rapport by meeting you where you are in the moment. Honest, nonjudgmental communication with a touch of humor at the right time is how I've lived my life, and I bring that same style to therapy.

My journey to mental healthcare

After another career, I worked in a busy emergency department supporting patients and witnessing workplace stress on staff. What stood out was how powerful empathy can be in healing and how hope emerges when we connect. Now in private practice, I create a space where patients and professionals feel seen and heard.

My goals for you

Goals matter, and they have more power when rooted in what truly matters to you. Taking time to explore your values—the things that give your life meaning and direction—can shape the way you set and pursue your goals. When a goal aligns with your values, it becomes more than an achievement. It becomes part of a meaningful life.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll talk about your history, but I believe in making sure you have something useful to take away from each session. With that in mind, an exercise of some kind will be part of that initial conversation. Finding workable solutions that move us toward the life we envision for ourselves starts on day one.
