About My Clients

We start every relationship by building trust and making space for a client's full identity — not asking them to minimize or explain it. We're attentive to what often goes unspoken: pressure to be "strong," to carry more than their share, or to navigate spaces that weren't built with them in mind. With clinicians of different backgrounds, we match each client with the counselor best suited to them.

My Background and Approach

Our clinicians draw from CBT, person-centered, and integrative approaches, tailored to each client rather than a one-size-fits-all model. We lead with relationship and trust, and every associate-level clinician on our team is directly supervised by an LPC-Supervisor, so clients receive the same standard of safety-informed, ethical care whether they see a senior clinician or someone newer to the field. With a team spanning different specialties, licensure levels, and backgrounds, we're able to match clients with a counselor whose approach genuinely fits their needs — rather than whoever happens to have an opening.
