LMFT

The therapeutic relationship is a unique bond between client and provider where the objective is to create an honest, non-judgmental, open and safe space. As a therapist I feel transparency and directness are essential components of a healthy therapeutic relationship. I am also a huge proponent of feedback and as your therapist I strive to create a space of free flowing communication to facilitate understanding and promote healing.

Throughout my career working with clients both in inpatient and outpatient settings, I've noticed that trauma is universal and personally defined by each individual. I've also been able to witness the amazing capacity for healing and change. I view the process of therapy as a way to access the residual effects of prior transformative experiences to resolve the mental, physical and emotional wounds while establishing new narratives and ways of coping.

I'd like to say that a first session with me will have the overall of feel of sitting down and sharing what you want your best version of yourself to look like. You will notice that I ask a variety of questions and with your responses you are able to provide the detail that makes the vision of your ideal self come to life. During the first session we are able to identify the goals of therapy and outline the plan to achieve what you'd like to see for yourself. By the conclusion of your first visit you will know exactly what you're working towards and the specific signs you are closer to achieving your goals.
