My Therapy Style

As a therapist, I strongly believe in creating a comfortable and safe space for clients. Through my experience, I've found that my therapy style is more casual, where I find sessions being experienced as casual conversations. I also show clients that I am human too and let clients of mine know that I've had my share of life experiences and have experienced some of the feelings you've experienced based on your current stressors. I can truly empathize with you and your stress. I've heard from many clients that this approach has led them to feel more comfortable in the therapeutic space and with me as their provider.

Get to Know Me

Why did you become a mental health professional?

I've always found myself to be a listener for others and genuinely caring for what someone was experiencing and how I could possibly help them/ solve their problem. I became a therapist because I've seen the lack of true caring from professionals in the field because they're burnt out and I do not want someone to feel as though someone does not care for them or that they are not being heard.

What are your interests outside of work?

I LOVE baking! I enjoy being able to create something and for it to taste yummy, but mainly to be able to share these creations with friends and family for them to enjoy. What's something you tried to bake?

How do you recharge?

Catching up on sleep, and engaging in an activity with my partner and our son whether it be a walk outside, watching tv or a movie, or going out for food.

Do you have any pets?

I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Lady (yes, like from Lady and the Tramp). My favorite story at this time would be introducing Lady to my son shortly after he was born and her being very protective of him and acting as security guard for him or when we brought her home.
