Starting therapy can feel awkward and overwhelming. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable opening up with me fairly quickly. Humor, when appropriate, is a part of my therapy style.
Areas of interest include assisting in navigating relationships and transitions, working towards healthy communication and boundaries, increasing self-worth, managing stress, and understanding diagnoses.
I am also interested in helping clients explore how childhood dynamics, attachment patterns, and family roles may still be influencing their thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
I believe building a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of a positive therapy experience. I genuinely care for my clients and strive to create a space where you feel safe being open—even about the things you've never said out loud.
In sessions, my goal is to balance insight and compassion with education, feedback, and strategies.
If you’re curious about starting therapy and want to see if we’re a good fit, feel free to reach out — we can talk and see what makes sense for you.
