“For me, being a psychotherapist is much more than an occupation; it’s who I am and what I value.”

What was your path to becoming a therapist?

Before pursuing my master’s degree, I worked in the business realm of the healthcare field for about 10 years. Through this work, I did a lot of personal growth (including giving presentations and public speaking - yikes!) and I had an opportunity to travel a bit. Eventually, I faced some fears around time and money and went back to school to earn my much desired master’s degree. For me, being a psychotherapist is much more than an occupation; it’s who I am and what I value. Going back to school was one of the best decisions I’ve made because I’m able to show up at “work” feeling like I’m bringing my full self. I have several years of experience working in partial hospitalization, outpatient mental health, and college settings.

What should someone know about working with you?

I customize my approach based on YOUR needs: If you are someone who is goal-oriented and enjoys homework, you've got it; if you are someone who prefers that therapy feel more conversational while also being productive, no problem. I enjoy working with people who self-describe as being “type A” because they tend to get right into therapy and see benefits rather quickly.

What do you do to continue learning and building competencies as a provider?

I'm always learning. While I have plenty of expertise, I won't ever sit back and consider myself an expert. I devour books and podcasts and am always interested in learning more in order to be the best clinician I can be. I strive to be an ally and am always learning and growing!
