I believe mental health care should be real, collaborative, and judgment-free. I'm not here to hand you a quick fix or talk at you from a pedestal — I'm here to listen, ask questions, and work with you to figure out what actually helps. I take a direct but supportive style: if something isn't working, we'll say so and adjust. If humor helps, we'll laugh. I meet you emotionally where you are at.
