Great to meet you!

I value growth and learning in myself and for my clients. I have been working in the field since 2022 and graduated from a well-respected in-person program. I welcome new challenges and want to see others live fully.

My approach to therapy

I try to match interventions with what best fits for the client and the situation. I use an eclectic approach and attempt to see the problem through the client's eyes while offering different perspectives.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I will be getting to know you and setting the boundaries for therapy that allow you to feel safe. I will listen to the problem as you see it to begin to conceptualize the best avenues to help you move forward.
