Great to meet you!

If you're navigating substance use, grief, anxiety, depression, or difficult life transitions, you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm Connor, and I've spent over five years in the mental health field helping people through these exact kinds of struggles. I got into this work because I believe everyone deserves someone who actually listens; not just to what you say, but to what you're carrying underneath it. I take what's happening in your life seriously, and I'll treat it that way.

My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques, which means we work on both the thought patterns keeping you stuck and the practical skills to move through them. I provide a warm, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself without judgment. Sessions are collaborative. I won't hand you a script to follow; I'll help you clarify what you actually want and build toward it at a pace that feels right.

Our first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. We'll talk about what brought you here, what you're hoping for, and what kind of support feels right for you. There's no pressure to have everything figured out or a polished story ready. Most people leave that first conversation feeling a bit more seen and less alone. From there, we build.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best when clients feel comfortable being themselves. I provide a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where we can work collaboratively to navigate challenges, build strengths, and support personal growth.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, any goals or concerns you may have, and what support you’re looking for. I aim to provide a warm, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself without judgment.
