My communication style

I value open and honest communication in the therapy room. I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable expressing yourself and asking questions. While I’m always compassionate and supportive, there are times when therapy calls for directness — when that’s needed, I approach it with care, empathy, and a focus on your growth and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because of my deep passion for supporting individuals who have experienced the foster care system. Through that work, I developed a strong connection to helping people navigate the lasting impacts of anxiety and trauma.

My goals for you

Together, we’ll start by looking at your current symptoms and challenges to understand what’s most impacting your life. Then, I’ll ask you to share what you hope to get out of therapy and how you’d like to feel when our work together comes to a close.

Our first session

In our first session together, my priority is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. We'll take time to get to know each other and begin building a strong therapeutic relationship.
