Come As You Are, Leave as Your Best Self
PHOENIX, ARIZONA
I am committed to your well-being
Welcome to a space where warmth meets professionalism, and therapy becomes a journey of curiosity and growth. My approach is uniquely tailored to each individual, while remaining rooted with evidence-based practices in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Humanistic Theory. This ensures that each session is both authentic and effective. I believe in fostering an environment of openness and safety, far removed from the stereotypical “head-nodding therapist.” Here, compassion is balanced with empowerment, inviting you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and relationships in a supportive setting. Whether you're seeking to enhance your self-esteem, navigate family dynamics, or strengthen your relationships, I am here to guide you with clarity and genuine understanding.

I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and a strategic mindset to help you make meaningful changes in your life. My goal is to guide you with clarity and understanding. Here, compassion is balanced with empowerment, inviting you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and relationships in a supportive setting.
Outside the office, I am a lifelong learner, always excited by new books, ideas, and cutting-edge trainings.

It is normal to feel a little anxious when first starting therapy. Prior to your first session, I will ask you to complete some paperwork so I can get a better sense of you and what brings you to our work together. You will receive a link to use for your online telehealth session, and you will log on at your appointment time. In the first session, I will ask questions to expand on the information you provided in the initial paperwork. Together, we will explore the areas you would like support with, and at the end of the session, we will both check in on how the session felt and if you feel like it will be a good fit.
-
Connection is key to the therapy relationship. Research shows that successful therapy is rooted in the therapeutic relationship, which means the relationship you have with your therapist is the most important factor in healing. Throughout our time together, we will be checking in on how you are feeling and if you feel like I am the right therapist to aid you in your journey.
-
Therapy sessions typically take place once a week or every other week. Over time, some clients choose to continue therapy on a less frequent basis, or return to regular sessions during times of need.
-
The duration of therapy is individual and dependent upon your needs and preferences. Progress typically happens gradually, and how long someone stays in therapy depends on many factors. I like to remove the stigma of therapy only serving to “solve a problem” and instead see therapy as a way of living. Therapy is about prioritizing you and your mental health so you can keep showing up to your life as your best self. I believe in long-term relationships with my clients, meaning there will be times in your life that you are regularly coming into therapy. There will also be times in your life when you aren’t coming in as regularly.
