I constantly research and learn more ways to help clients, I never want a problem to go unsolved. I will work tirelessly to support my clients with a long term therapeutic alliance directed towards achieving long term goals.

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

In our first session we will start with brief introductions for one another. I like to go over intake paperwork surrounding your treatment goals, and get to know you based on the intake questionnaire. I will go over cancellation policies, as well as give you information about how I will support you in therapy and answer any questions you have.

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

I pride myself on being easy to talk to. I don't judge, I truly have a passion for wanting to help people be the best person they can be regardless of adversity and barriers. As long as your willing to talk, I will always go to bat for clients regarding any avenue that could be supportive to their overall mental health.
