-I work with clients who experience anxiety, depression, eating disorders, workplace issues, peer problems, sexuality concerns, etc.

-I integrate humor because laughter is contagious

-I have a firm but friendly tone. I am assertive but can match my tone to yours when needed. Not every problem is the same, and communication styles will change depending on the need. I am honest, down to earth, and will celebrate your accomplishments.

Patients should expect to feel heard and seen. We will learn about each other, identify why you decided to put your mental health first, and connect. It will be a great first session.
