My Therapy Lens

My therapeutic approach is direct, evidence-informed, and refreshingly honest. I believe in creating a space where you feel supported—but also challenged—to step out of old patterns and into a healthier, more empowered version of yourself. Therapy with me is equal parts clinical expertise, emotional depth, and a dash of playful realness to keep the work grounded and human.

Direct + Engaged (No Passive Therapy Here)

I am not a sit-and-nod therapist. You’ll get clear guidance, structured support, and real-time feedback. I help you understand what’s happening internally, why it’s happening, and—most importantly—what you can do about it.

Positive & Challenging (Compassion With a Backbone)

I challenge you in ways that feel safe, respectful, and energizing. We dig into the patterns, beliefs, and emotional reflexes that keep you stuck—and we disrupt them with insight, strategy, and a bit of courage. You’ll hear the truth, wrapped in compassion, delivered with intention.

Outcome-Oriented + Solutions-Focused

Therapy isn’t just about understanding the problem—it’s about creating movement. Together, we identify what you want your life, relationships, and inner world to look like, and we build the roadmap to get you there. You leave each session with clarity, direction, and often a new skill or tool to practice.

Pattern-Breaking Work With Full Emotional Support

Old patterns don’t dissolve just because you see them. They shift when you feel supported, validated, and held accountable. My style blends clinical insight, emotional regulation strategies, and grounded encouragement to help you step out of old cycles and create new, healthier ones.

Cutting Through the BS (Professionally, of Course)

I bring honesty, humor, and straight talk into session. If something is keeping you stuck—an old survival story, a self-critical voice, a relationship dynamic, or plain avoidance—we name it, understand it, and move through it. No shame. No sugarcoating. Just real work that changes lives.
