Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I understand how intimidating it can be to start therapy with a new provider, and my goal is to make you feel comfortable, supported, and heard from the first session. In our initial meeting, we’ll discuss your goals for therapy—no need to have everything figured out right away.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths as a provider are my compassion and deep commitment to my clients' well-being. I genuinely care about each person's journey and work hard to create a safe, supportive space where they feel heard and understood. This commitment drives me to tailor my approach to each individual, ensuring they receive the care and guidance they need to thrive.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I specialize in helping adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, job-related stress, and life transitions. With experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I have worked with clients facing a wide range of mental health concerns, and I’m here to support you no matter where you are in your journey.
