I wish to help clients by building trust and offering practical tools to manage stress, improve communication, and navigate life transitions. I enhance self-awareness with honest feedback, and uses humor to create a relaxed space. I validate experiences and tailors therapy, fostering resilience and well-being through a supportive and collaborative approach. Life's transitions can feel overwhelming, leaving you disconnected & unsure of where to turn. If you're seeking a supportive guide through these challenges, consider reaching out. I understand the importance of genuine connection and offers a warm, conversational approach to therapy. I'm ready to listen, offer honest feedback, and take the journey with you.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I pride myself on meeting my client where they are emotionally. My down-to-earth conversation style applies to all walks of life. I believe therapy can be a conversation between friends with affirmation when needed, a direct discussion, or simply a light sense of humor. Life is full of moments and leaps of faith. I am here to help the leap from this moment to the next.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am known for providing mental health services, including therapy and counseling. I have a strong focus on helping individuals navigate a range of issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and interpersonal relationships.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My ideal client is someone who values a genuine, emotionally connected therapeutic relationship built on trust and open communication. They are likely navigating a significant life transition, experiencing relationship challenges, or struggling with mild to moderate anxiety and seek practical coping mechanisms alongside emotional support. This client appreciates a therapist who is approachable and relatable, offering a conversational style and a willingness to adapt their approach to individual needs. They may also benefit from my humor as a way to ease tension and value honest feedback as part of their growth process.
