I chose to become a counselor because I wanted to offer a supportive space to talk for those who were going through serious challenges with their mental health.

I work best with clients who show up on the bad days, not just the good days. I believe that the days we struggle the most are usually the most important days to come to therapy.

I wish all clients knew that perfection isn't my expectation in therapy. I think just showing up and trying is the real difference in the healing process, and that this often takes time.

In the first session, we will work together to develop a treatment plan for you, and decide on areas of focus for our sessions together.

I value the importance of each person's individual story and I am honored when clients feel comfortable to share a portion of that story with me. 

I start by trying my best to get to know the client as a person. In therapy, some clients are going to really appreciate a to the-point kind of style, where as others want someone to walk along side them through their emotions. By genuinely getting know the client, I can work out the nuances of how to make therapy work for them.
