Clients usually tell me that they leave sessions feeling a sense of relief and encouragement. They say I'm: warm, caring, understanding, helpful

I prioritize gaining a good understanding of your experience. This includes listening with empathy, using brief assessments to track your symptoms, and using skillful methods. You'll likely have between session assignments to help you learn faster.

Through our conversations, we will clarify your direction and understand what slows you down from getting to your desired outcomes. As you understand your psychology, you'll learn new skills (coping, problem solving, boundaries, communication, etc.).

I specialize in working with people who feel anxious or depressed, or who have relational challenges that they are willing to work on. I know the vulnerability it takes to come into therapy. I will work gently as we go.

I worked on a crisis hotline as a volunteer in college. Callers told me that I had helped them & should become a therapist. I also liked psychology.

I'm primarily doing telehealth but my telehealth office is calm and contained. If we meet at my office, my office is cheerful and welcoming.

I enjoy helping people by teaching them things that I've used on myself through my own journey. I believe in what I do and also do my own work on myself. I think this is important for therapists to do & wouldn't go to one who didn't.
