Great to meet you!

Collaboration and shared decision-making are essential.

I work alongside clients to explore their goals, provide education, and develop treatment plans that align with their values and preferences. Pay close attention not just to what clients say, but how they say it—affect, behavior, and underlying themes.

My approach to therapy

My approach is patient-centered, holistic, and evidence-based care. I focus on understanding the whole person—not just their symptoms, but their background, environment, relationships, and goals. I also emphasize continuity and adaptability. I regularly reassess treatment effectiveness and adjust plans based on the client’s response, preferences, and evolving needs.

Finally, I’m mindful of cultural, social, and systemic factors that impact mental health, and I strive to provide care that is respectful, inclusive, and individualized.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect their first session with me to be welcoming, structured, and focused on understanding them as a whole person.
