What can I expect in my first few sessions with?

In our first few sessions together, you can expect a supportive, yet goal directed and focused space where we’ll collaborate to clarify what you want to get out of therapy. Using a blend of Solution-Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I’ll help you identify your strengths, build on what’s already working, and introduce practical tools to manage difficult emotions or unhelpful patterns. Whether you’re navigating trauma, an eating disorder, burnout, or a major life transition, I take an empathetic yet direct approach—balancing emotional validation with actionable steps. My background in sports psychology and passion for holistic wellness also means we may explore the connection between your mental and physical well-being, especially if performance, identity, or lifestyle shifts are part of your journey. My goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered from the very beginning.

What makes you different from other psychologists?

What sets me apart from other psychologists is my direct, no-nonsense approach. I don’t believe in sugarcoating or dancing around the real issues—we’ll get to the root of what’s going on, not just cover it up with short-term solutions. My goal isn’t to put a bandaid on a bullet hole; it’s to help you truly understand what's driving your struggles and to build lasting change from the inside out. While I bring empathy and warmth to the work, I also believe that real growth requires honesty, clarity, and a willingness to confront what’s not working. If you're ready to dig deep and do the work, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

What inspired you to become a psychologist?

What inspired me to become a psychologist was a deep desire to support people in a way that feels real, honest, and genuinely transformative. I’ve always been drawn to understanding what’s beneath the surface—because too often, we stay in the shallow end when what we really need is a deeper, more meaningful connection. I wanted to create a space where people feel truly seen and heard, where we don’t avoid the hard stuff but face it head-on. My passion lies in helping others find clarity and strength by being direct, grounded, and solution-focused—because real healing comes from understanding, not avoidance.
