My communication style

Working with me feels like sitting with a trusted friend who sees you deeply and listens without judgment. I create an empathetic, conversational, and affirming environment where you can be your full, unfiltered self. Clients appreciate my humor, warmth, and balance of tough love with encouragement.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up in a neighborhood steeped in chaos while witnessing the impact of my mother's bipolar disorder, I felt a deep desire to understand why people think, feel, and act the way they do. Therapy became my calling because I saw it as a way to bridge my natural empathy with a desire to help others find healing and meaning.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative, fluid process starting within the first two sessions. Together, we'll outline what success looks like—whether overcoming a challenge or cultivating a mindful, balanced life. Goals are measurable but flexible; we regularly revisit and adjust them to reflect your evolving needs.

Our first session

Our first session sets the foundation for a trusting relationship. We'll explore what brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain. I share pieces of my story, like my experiences with anxiety and depression, to show I truly get it. This is a conversation where you feel seen, heard, and safe.
