First session
Initial appointments are longer than follow ups and allow me to get to know you, as well as identifying the next steps. Follow up sessions typically focus on updates, or changes, since the last visit.
Strengths
Communication, trust, and flexibility are crucial for meeting client goals. With a focus on compassionate care, I aim to make everyone feel heard and empowered. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a genuine desire to see every patient achieve long-lasting mental wellness

Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I assess and treat clients through a CBT lens, identifying dysfunctional thought patterns and/or beliefs. In addition to medication management, I work with clients to identify coping strategies (ie journaling, meditation).
