My communication style

My style is warm, empathetic, transparent, and collaborative, fostering an environment where you feel safe, heard, and valued. I prioritize active listening and maintain a supportive, non-judgmental tone. I encourage open dialogue and invite you to share your perspectives, making therapy a shared journey toward healing.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into trauma awareness was sparked by a passion for understanding human resilience and healing. I've worked in diverse settings including community health centers, crisis intervention programs, military support, and acute hospital settings. These experiences opened my eyes to the varying manifestations of trauma and shaped my practice.

My goals for you

I help you reach your goals by first establishing a clear understanding of your aspirations and challenges. Together, we set specific, achievable objectives tailored to your circumstances. I employ evidence-based techniques and therapeutic tools that align with your needs, guiding you in developing effective strategies to overcome obstacles.

Our first session

The first session is welcoming and supportive, designed to help you feel comfortable and at ease. We begin with an open discussion where I invite you to share your reasons for seeking therapy and any specific concerns. I listen actively, ensuring you feel heard and understood. We explore your goals and discuss how I can best support you.
