I am here to join you in your corner. I am here to listen and understand where you are coming from. I am here to hold the space that you need in order to cultivate optimism in your life and make the choices the reflect the life you would like to have. I am not here to tell you that you are broken, I am not here to tell you are wrong. Most importantly, I don’t hold all of the answers, but I do hold the space that will build a bridge to the life that you have always dreamt of. This is my commitment to you and I am honored at the opportunity to enter this role in your life. At the end of the day, we are on our own in this world. Sure we have family and communities that can provide us with support and guide us on the right path, but if the “right” path doesn’t bring fulfillment, then what are we supposed to do? This is one of the toughest questions to answer, but when you engage in therapy with me, we find that this tough question becomes an exciting journey which can at times even be fun. Whether you find yourself carrying trauma that is interfering with your present or are turning to ways of coping that are no longer sustainable, I have the ability to explore these realities without judgement so that you can work towards increased effectiveness in all aspects of your life. Are you ready to take this journey together?

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session will involve orientation to the process of therapy with me as well as collection of information. During this time, we will get to know each other and will determine if we are a good fit to work with each other. I will lay out what I believe the next steps will look like as well as answer any questions you have about the process.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a therapist is my calm and welcoming demeanor. I have a way of creating an environment that is non-judgemental which allows my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings in a secure environment. I am a very flexible and creative thinker which I believe is conducive to this practice. I recognize that at times prospective clients have had negative experiences with past therapists or specific interventions. I like to spend time learning about this so that we can partner and create a dynamic that is best for you!
