Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, I’ll take time to learn about you—your family background, relationships, coping skills, past experiences with therapy, and what you hope to achieve. My goal is to understand the roots of your core beliefs and align our work with your treatment goals. We’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable, starting exactly where you are. This approach is designed to help you feel safe, heard, and acknowledged from the very beginning. If you’re new to therapy, we’ll take extra time to explore your thoughts about starting this journey, answer any questions, and make sure you feel supported as we begin.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I incorporate a trauma-informed, systems-centered, and person-in-environment perspective to help you explore connections, understand how you see yourself and others, and examine the narratives you carry about yourself, your loved ones, and the world. I consider both your past and present experiences, as well as your strengths, aspirations, and limitations. While working together, I meet you where you are emotionally, using each session to create space for safety, vulnerability, and reflection. Clients often share that they feel challenged, motivated, and supported in therapy with me, appreciating the balance of understanding and transparency I bring.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with clients who are motivated to make positive changes and open to exploring opportunities for personal growth. Together, we can identify areas for development and work collaboratively toward achieving meaningful treatment goals that resonate with you.
