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

In our first session, we’ll begin with a brief introduction, review the limits of confidentiality and practice policies, and go over the intake measures you completed to help me better understand the challenges you’re facing. This information allows us to create a tailored treatment plan—a roadmap for our work together. The first four sessions are dedicated to building a strong foundation: clarifying your goals, establishing the therapeutic relationship, and ensuring we are a good fit. During this period, we’ll also assess whether my services are the best match for your needs. If at any point it becomes clear that a higher level of care, medication management, or a different provider would better support you, I will gladly provide referrals. Referrals can be coordinated through the Grow Therapy matching team for a smooth and supported transition of care.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe therapy is a wellness journey—an intentional act of self-care rooted in holistic health and authentic growth. Meaningful change doesn’t happen overnight; it often requires resilience, grit, and a willingness to navigate the challenges that arise along the way. My therapeutic style is creative, nonjudgmental, authentic, humorous, and direct. I strive to embody what I encourage in my clients: letting go of perfection and exploring who you are truly meant to be. You’ll often find me in athleisure from my sports background and inspired by nature for its grounding, restorative qualities. I invite clients to come exactly as they are, fostering a space where the full spectrum of emotions is welcome. I celebrate small wins and honor the growth that unfolds throughout your therapeutic process. Clients who commit to consistency tend to experience the most meaningful progress. At times, therapy may feel as though things are getting harder before they get better—this is a natural part of the healing process. As emotions surface and insights deepen, meaningful change begins to take shape. My role is not to “fix” you but to walk alongside you in this process. I collaborate, support, and integrate wellness coaching to empower autonomy and build resilience—key ingredients for lasting transformation. In summary, I believe in striving for progress, not perfection. My philosophy centers on creating an authentic, supportive space where clients can be fully themselves, experience their emotions without judgment, and step into meaningful change with confidence and compassion.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My path to becoming a Mental Health Practitioner was inspired by my passion for wellness, athletics, and overcoming personal health challenges. These experiences shaped my commitment to supporting others in their own journeys. Today, I aim to help clients cultivate growth, hope, optimism, autonomy, and meaningful transformation as they navigate their unique wellness paths. Welcome to your growth :) I’m excited to walk this path with you.
