Great rapport helps build trust which helps my client open up to me so that we can dive into whatever problems they may be facing. It is essential in helping my clients which their goals. I always try to be relatable to my clients. Although this is professional relationship, I talk with my clients like I would my friends who were asking for advice. Clients can relate more to a therapist who is open and transparent. So I share stories, there may be moments where we laugh or even cry together. I want my clients to know that I am here for them and understand what they are going through.

Building good rapport is the key component of the therapeutic relationship. When a client feels like they can be open, transparent and vulnerable with you the real work can begin in therapy. I pride myself on meeting my clients where they are and developing their skills.

I think its in my blood. I always knew I wanted to help others. When I was younger, I would go around and help make sure all the kids in class were happy and it put a smile on my face when I would make them feel better. As I got older, I noticed how everyone would come to me for advice and that I had no problem interacting with strangers and making conversations. This all translated into me becoming a therapist. I was always fascinated by human behavior and wanted to be the one that helped others feel better and grow.
