MEET YOUR THERAPIST
Hey, you! I am a therapist dedicated to helping people like you:
​
Curious and motivated people who are tired of the “emotional rollercoaster” associated with anxiety and stress that they’re ready to do something about it.
​
Clients work with me because they are ready to finally feel better, to feel confident as the amazing person they already are. I have years of experience helping adults improve their self-esteem, develop healthier coping and communication skills, set boundaries, and achieve better work-life balance.
​
We might be a good fit if you:
​
-
Are motivated to change, but just don’t know where to start
-
Want a therapist who is relatable, compassionate, and honest
-
You need someone that will cultivate a safe space for you feel free of judgement to unpack your stressors
​
Above all, I believe you should be able to trust your therapist!
​
Therefore, my approach is grounded in trust and transparency. As I believe that therapy is relational, it is important to be matched with a therapist that understands you. My personal strategy is to gain an understanding of your story to incorporate it into our work. I believe that it is equally important to provide whole-person care. As a self-care advocate, I frequently incorporate these strategies into sessions as I see fit, to help you create the life you want.
​

​
P.S.
I wouldn’t go to a therapist I didn’t feel comfortable with, and you shouldn’t either. Therapy is not one size fits all!
So… if we’re not a good fit, I’m always happy to refer you to one of the talented therapists in my network.
