About My Clients

I can imagine that you don’t want be in therapy & feel like you don’t know where to start/what to say. You want to grow and be better. You will learn effective strategies and skills, break the cycles you’re in, make profound insights, and improve your life and relationships. We’ll explore your sense of self, your relationships, personal aspirations, life stressors, goals and more. We’ll uncover your patterns of behavior and create a deeper understanding of who you are & what you value.

My Background and Approach

My unique combination of master’s degrees supports my skillset of critical thinking, problem-solving, empathy, and emotional intelligence. My style can be best described as being supportive, directive, playful, and challenging. I value your time, energy, and money and so I cater our sessions to be most productive, efficient, & supportive for you. I have a fresh perspective on therapy, life experiences, and conceptualizations of clients. I stay well-informed on research and successful therapeutic processes so I can best support you. I operate within a trauma-informed psychodynamic & systemic therapy lens, drawing upon cognitive behavioral techniques when needed. Recognizing challenges fuels growth and uncovering their roots elevates control! I’ll help you expand your level of self-awareness, enrich your relationships, and increase your personal growth. There is nothing off the table for us to talk about. Let's have a candid conversation where you feel supported, empowered, and safe.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the transformative power of compassion, understanding, and connection. I embrace authenticity and genuineness. I typically take a “no-bullshit” approach. I am committed to creating an environment where clients can reveal their true selves without fear of judgment. I am an advocate for mental health awareness and de-stigmatization. I am committed to working towards dismantling the barriers that prevent individuals from seeking the support they deserve. To me, therapy is a partnership where we co-create a journey of growth, self-discovery, and resilience. Schedule a free, 15-minute consultation call with me today. I promise to be responsive. I look forward to meeting you!
