My approach
Authentic and direct
Therapy is a space for you. I will be my truest self so you can have the freedom to be your truest self without judgement, shame, or sugarcoating.
Enthusiastic, celebrating every success-big or little
You deserve to be celebrated every step of the way. Count me in on being your biggest cheerleader.
Integrating creative expression
When just talking doesn't fully capture our emotions, thoughts, and experiences, we'll use arts and crafts and other creative tools as a way to better express ourselves.
Valuing individual strengths and needs
You have a unique experience and life story. By pulling from various modalities and your strengths, I tailor a treatment plan individualized to your specific needs.
Curious and genuine connection
Get ready for sessions to be as inviting as everyday conversation. We'll laugh, cry, and everything in between.
