Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm glad you're here. Over the years, I've worked in a variety of settings, from schools to hospitals, giving me a broad perspective on the challenges people face. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can work together on practical strategies to help you feel better. Starting therapy is a brave step, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. If you have any questions or want to set up a session, just reach out. Looking forward to working with you!

A bit about my approach to therapy

I mostly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It's practical and collaborative, so we'll work together to come up with strategies that help you tackle your challenges. I also mix in other techniques as needed to make sure you're getting the best support.

What you can expect from our first session

After our sessions, you should feel more confident and ready to take on whatever life throws at you!
