Great to meet you!

I attempt to make therapy a comfortable place for you. I know how difficult it is for some to seek help and I am sensitive to this and therefore my goal is to make you as comfortable as possible.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am your partner in your journey. My role is to be your cheerleader but to also help you be accountable & remain on track to accomplish the goals that YOU identified.

What you can expect from our first session

Most of my clients say that they feel better when leaving a session with me. I work hard to build rapport and make everyone feel comfortable to share. I am open minded, culturally competent, curious, and start where you are.
