Well done on taking the first steps to a better you! Simply acknowledging you need support and then reaching out can be the most difficult, yet empowering part of the process to a happier you. As a clinician, I specialize in working with teens, young adults and women as they navigate chapters throughout life. My goal is to facilitate a safe and nonjudgemental space for clients to verbalize thoughts and feelings. I provide a holistic approach that assesses overall physical health and its impact on mental health; looking at sleep patterns, nutrition, and social relationships. Utilizing a variety of different clinical modalities, I work alongside my clients to aid them in identifying strengths and maladaptive patterns that may interfere with happiness. Applying a strength-based approach, I guide clients in self-care practices and the development of a coping skills 'tool kit' that both empowers and equips client's with the skills necessary to build a happier and more confident life.

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

In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introduction, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. I’ll inquire regarding your physical health, sleeping and eating habits and overall social health. This will help me in collaborating with you to create a tailored plan to commence you on your journey to a better you.

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

My clinical style is both gentle and direct. I believe in providing clients with a safe space to verbalize thoughts and feelings while simultaneously pointing out and challenging maladaptive patterns of thinking that may interfere with their progress to realize their true potential.
