Great to meet you!

I've been in this field for about a decade now and I feel like there's almost nothing I haven't seen. I received a comment once from a client who said to me that "I talked to you because you didn't freak out when I got deep," and I took that to heart immediately. There's nothing that makes me feel better than when a client tells me that they feel comfortable enough to talk to me. I talk with my hands, I make funny faces and tend to talk in weird voices, and my favorite question is "What's on your mind?" I also have a cat who will most definitely poke her face into the camera during sessions, unasked.

My approach to therapy

My approach tends to be eclectic and to draw from a wide variety of practices and theories, as I tend to believe that the more I know and the more diverse (or perhaps weirder) my brain is, the better I can help. I can also be irreverent and prefer to be funny, as there's nothing that helps elevate comfort like making someone laugh.

What you can expect from me

I'd love for us to get to know each other in our first session. I want to know why you're here, what you're expecting in your journey, and also what you expect from me. I would also like to make you comfortable enough with me in that first session to make some plans and see if we can visualize what a path forward looks like.
