As a therapist, I'm interested in helping you get curious about all parts of yourself, challenge rigid thinking, and hold more space for nuance. I especially enjoy working with clients as they work to: create healthy, reciprocal relationships, overcome perfectionism and people-pleasing patterns, and navigate life and career transitions. I am here to do my best to understand you and to help you clarify what your growth and healing will look like.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session together, I'll ask some questions about your background and lived experiences and go over basic policies/practices. If you've been in therapy before, I might ask you to share what has and hasn't been helpful for you in the past, and I'll answer questions you might have of me. Finally, we'll start discussing your goals and what you're hoping to learn about yourself. In follow up sessions, we'll dive in to what is challenging you in your life, identify patterns or areas where you're feeling stuck, and begin to create a plan of how to start making small changes outside of our appointments together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Over the course of my career, I have developed strong skills in creating a warm and respectful relationship with clients, where they feel able to be themselves. I use humor and authenticity while gently challenging you to expand perspective, try new things, and develop self-compassion.
