My Approach to Helping
Welcome to the place where healing can begin. Your story matters here, and I am excited and honored to hear it.
When I work with clients I show up as myself first, and therapist second. Therapy is extremely personal, and at times uncomfortable! I make sure my clients feel comfortable and safe, by incorporating humor and my personality when it is appropriate. Healing journey’s can sometimes feel very isolating. It is my hope we can walk hand in hand as you create the life you have always wanted for yourself.
I believe many of these hardships would seem more livable if we each had someone to turn to in times of need. I feel inspired by my own life experiences, as well the clients I first worked with at a local crisis hotline, while an undergraduate student. While I expected this line to serve only those in crisis who were experiencing suicidal thoughts, I was shocked by the amount of callers who were simply searching for human connection as they experienced hardships of life. I have seen that sometimes we feel empowered and find strength in just speaking our truths to someone else.
