My communication style

I practice active, attuned listening and create space for thoughtful reflection throughout our sessions. I offer a non‑judgmental environment that encourages open, honest communication, and I provide compassionate feedback. If we’re working through something especially challenging, you can expect me to show up with patience & genuine understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey in the mental health field began in 2016. I realized early—during training—that I had chosen the right path despite being warned that working with teens in the mental health community would involve “some element of risk however, I was more determined to "get my hands dirty" and fell in love with helping clients in their journeys.

My goals for you

I view therapy as a collaborative partnership. Together, we’ll identify goals that truly matter to you. As you gain new insights, we’ll continue to adjust your plan so it stays meaningful, supportive, and aligned with where you’re headed.

Our first session

The first session can feel intimidating—you’re meeting someone new and sharing pieces of your story that may feel vulnerable. I’m very intentional about being personable and approachable so you can feel comfortable opening up at your own pace. I often use gentle, appropriate moments of lightness to help clients relax and settle into the process.
