My communication style

I create a safe space where you feel heard and understood. Sessions can be as flexible or structured as you want. Sometimes you may have specific goals in mind, and other times you simply want to be listened to and believed. I think both working toward goals and being understood are essential parts of therapy.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because everyone deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported. When we face hardships, having someone who listens without judgment makes a huge difference. People often want to feel better but don't know how to start, and I enjoy giving them the skills to do so.

My goals for you

Clients and I work together to create their goals and a plan to meet them. When a client identifies a goal such as "having less anxiety" or "feeling happier," we discuss what their lives would look like once they accomplish those goals and the specific steps toward getting there.

Our first session

The first session will be spent getting to know one another and defining basic goals to work on in future sessions. We'll also talk about how you want sessions to look, how often we'll meet, and how the time can be best spent.
