Get to know me

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

First and foremost, I will dedicate extensive time getting to know you as an individual—your unique history, lifestyle, and the symptoms you're currently experiencing. Then, we will go back to your early childhood and work our way up to your present history, bringing context to how you're wired. In essence, we won't simply ignore the "Check Engine" light; instead, we will lift the hood and thoroughly examine what's going on. With this comprehensive understanding, we can personalize a treatment plan that's best for you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have the ability to make people I just met feel like we've been lifelong friends. I balance my sincerity and professional demeanor with a sense of humor and wit. I deeply care about helping people live happy and meaningful lives, and I understand that means different things to different people. I will work alongside you, cheer you on, research on your behalf, and keep at it until we've met your goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

While our sessions are deeply supportive and incorporate elements of relational therapy, CBT, and lifestyle coaching, my primary role is distinct from that of a weekly talk therapist. The frequency of our meetings is guided by the clinical needs of medication management—monitoring its effectiveness, addressing any side effects, and making adjustments as your life and symptoms evolve. We'll use our time to check in on life stressors and work through challenges, always with your well-being at the center. To ensure the safest care, my telehealth practice is NOT the best fit for client with active substance use, severe psychosis, or those seeking controlled substances (ex. stimulants, benzodiazepines) for anxiety and ADHD management. These needs are better served by specialized, in-person teams.
