Get to know me

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

Our first session intake gives me the basic framework of what brought you to therapy and how I may be of service to you. I will need some history to get a better understanding of your health and wellbeing. Finally, we will collaborate to set up a treatment plan which includes goals and expectations of what you would like to get out of therapy.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked as a bereavement therapist in hospice, I understand grief and working with families. I have also worked for a functional restoration program focused on helping clients adjust to chronic pain. Throughout my life, I have had to reinvent myself and rediscover my strengths. Once studying graphic design, I had to pivot to a new career in art therapy. I have a passion to help clients going through a life transition, including midlife and career changes.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I often work with individuals who are coping with anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss and life transitions. Furthermore, I am also quite experienced in working with chronic pain, dementia, Parkinson's and cancer, whether it's midlife changes, grief and the stressors of aging parents. I have also helped clients who struggle with codependent and narcissistic relationship patterns learn to set boundaries and effectively communicate in a way that empowers them.
