Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome to my page! I have worked with a diverse population raging from children to adults with a range of topics needing to be discussed and improved upon. I mainly use techniques centered in CBT which gains an understanding between one's actions and thoughts. I believe in a client centered, strength based approach which highlights all of your many positive qualities. I aim to make all my clients feel as comfortable as possible as I know how difficult the therapeutic process can be.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I take a laid back approach to my sessions because I believe it humanizes me as a therapist. I do not want to come off as a stoic or robotic person, or fill the session with clinical terms where you find yourself feeling like you are in a classroom. I have experienced that the most effective sessions come from when someone feels comfortable enough to speak and explore their thoughts and feelings and I strive to create that space for the people who I am lucky enough to work with.

What you can expect from our first session

My ultimate aim as a therapist is to offer support to individuals in their pursuit of personal growth, self-acceptance, and overall well-being. I believe together we can and will build a strong therapeutic relationship and create positive change. No matter what it is that you may be going through, you are not alone and I would feel lucky to be able to help.
