About My Clients

Therapy is not a one size fits all model. Therapy should be tailored to your needs in order to be a space for you to feel comfortable, safe, and connect with your therapist. I enjoy helping athletes, post-athletic careers, people pleasers, and those needing to process life transitions & self actualization to allow you to enjoy life to it's fullest.

My Background and Approach

I want to start off by saying props to you on taking that first step and acknowledging you need a change. Having that insight is a key component as we embark on this therapeutic relationship. Within this relationship, my role is to help you uncover who you are, determine where you want to go in life, and how to manage all the pivots you will have along the journey. The perception of what therapy looks like is that I will be sitting in a cardigan sweater in my leather chair, while you sit on my couch spilling all your darkest moments and secrets because you are struggling with your mental health. That is not the case with how I conduct therapy. I believe that having a safe place to process changes, vent about interactions with others, discuss trauma, and encourage you to express all your emotions in a healthy way (and not just the ones that paint this “perfect” picture). That can look like going for a walk, punching my speedbag, or throwing the ball around.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

To get the most out of therapy, you have to determine that you are sick of being stuck in the state you are in and ready to start making some changes. You are the owner of your life and change has to come from you. I can't change you. My job as your therapist is to support you through these changes by creating a safe space to help you dig into the root of your feelings, helping you hold yourself accountable and maybe, enjoying some laughs along the way. This is your life!
