Practice philosophy: To work with clients to understand their needs, goals and preferences, and to help them build skills for success as they define it.
What are you passionate about and why? Helping people slow down their thought processes - people have so many great insights and ideas when we can pause and really talk through things.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? I'd love to work in a library or combo bookstore/coffee shop.
What is something you have learned from your patients? Many things!
What is one of the challenges of this career you enjoy? And why? Translating psychology jargon into tools that help people recover. Each person has a unique take on the world, and we can use their creativity to individualize evidence-based therapy techniques.
What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? Slow down, rest, and find joy, especially in hard times.
