Get to know me

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

Our first session will be an introductory session where we will talk about your background, your current issues, and your treatment goals. Here is where we will collaborate so I can be the therapist you need me to be and you show me the best way to support you. You will always have the right to refuse to answer a question, end session early if you "aren't feeling it", or ask me to change my approach

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a Peer Recovery Specialist, you will have a therapist with her own mental health recovery journey so you know you are working with someone who is doing the work too. My focus is on educating you on best practices, resiliency building and empowerment through hardship. No one wants to experience trauma or crisis. But if we have to experience it, I believe in making it an opportunity for growth, improved self reliance, strengthened relationships, a stronger ability to handle stress, and finding ways for a better and brighter future You will find me calm in a crisis, nonjudgemental, and open minded. With over 10 years of suicide prevention under my belt, I am capable of helping you stay safe and manage some of your darkest thoughts with the utmost dignity and care.
