It is cliché, but I became a therapist as I wanted to make a difference. I spent years watching others struggle without support and wanted to dedicate my life to providing that support to those in need.

My favorite type of clients are those who are ready to engage and want gain an new perspective on their life.

I enjoy working with clients who are looking for alternative ways to deal with life stressors. I am also excited to work with clients navigating their gender and/or sexuality journey.

What works for one person does not necessarily work for the next. Everyone brings unique experiences that can effect what method is best for them.

I wanted to work at Thriveworks as it allows me autonomy to use different evidence based practices as determined by clients needs and not organizational requirements.

I get inspired by seeing the growth in my clients and watching them meet their goals.

I use the first session to understand the expectations of my client and for the client to understand my expectations. It is important that we vibe together.

I want clients to feel hopeful leaving the first session.

I view therapy as the client's journey and I am there to show alternative paths. It is not my role to judge a client asking for help.

I spend most of my free time enjoying the outdoors or reading. I especially enjoy exploring new places or spending the day on the boat.

My loved ones define me the most.
