Hello and welcome! As a Millennial therapist with a modern and relatable approach to psychotherapy, I remain deeply committed to authenticity, open-mindedness, and practicality in my work. My lived experience with trauma, adversity, and mental health challenges allows me to connect with clients on a personal level while my extensive, specialized training equips me with the tools to provide the most effective, tailored care. In our collaborative journey, I value flexibility, adapting to each individual's needs because I know there's no one-size-fits-all approach to healing.
I constantly stay on top of evolving trends and cutting-edge research to offer the best care possible. Therapy is a dynamic process, and I'm equally invested in my own personal growth, as I also see my own therapist. The work we do is a partnership, a shared journey where I offer both expertise and lived understanding, grounded in genuine empathy.
In my space, I welcome the full spectrum of your personality- laughter, jokes, and all. I'm committed to fostering an atmosphere of genuine openness, where you can be your authentic self without fear of judgment. We're all navigating this life together, learning as we go, and I'm here to help you figure it out with support, insight, and clinical expertise!
