What should a new client know about working with you?

I take a warm, straightforward, and collaborative approach to therapy, creating a space where you can feel comfortable, heard, and understood. My focus is on helping individuals and couples navigate relationship challenges, intimacy concerns, and mental health struggles with empathy and practical tools. With a background in marriage and family therapy and specialized training in sex therapy, I tailor each session to your unique needs—whether that’s improving communication, rebuilding trust, or exploring concerns around intimacy and identity. I value humor, directness, and a balance of emotional depth and lightheartedness in our work together. I work with clients from all walks of life and take an inclusive, nonjudgmental stance in therapy. My goal is to help you develop insight, make meaningful changes, and ultimately build the relationships and life you want. If you're ready to start this journey, I’d love to work with you!

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I take a collaborative and tailored approach to therapy, ensuring that each client feels heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Our work together starts with an initial session where we explore your concerns, goals, and what you hope to gain from therapy. This is a space to get to know each other, establish trust, and begin mapping out a direction that fits your needs. From there, we focus on building insight, developing practical strategies, and addressing challenges in a way that feels manageable and meaningful. My style is warm, direct, and interactive—I encourage open dialogue, offer honest reflections, and bring in evidence-based techniques that support growth. Whether we're working on communication, intimacy, stress management, or deeper relational patterns, each session is designed to move you toward lasting change. Therapy is an ongoing process, and I regularly check in to ensure our work remains effective and aligned with your goals. When you're ready, we’ll focus on maintaining progress and equipping you with the tools to continue growing beyond therapy. Above all, I strive to create a space where you can explore challenges without judgment, gain clarity, and feel more confident in your relationships and personal life. If you're ready to get started, I’d love to work with you!
