I take a straightforward, no-bullshit approach to therapy—but always with warmth, compassion, and respect. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to be honest, challenged to grow, and supported every step of the way. I believe in working collaboratively: you bring your experiences and insight, and I bring my clinical training and perspective. Together, we’ll identify what’s getting in the way and work toward meaningful, sustainable change. Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level talk—it’s about doing the real work, with someone who’s fully in it with you.
