In life, there will always be ups and downs. While the ups can be wonderful, the downs can sometimes be painful. Most individuals are able to rebound during difficult times, but for those who remain down or feel stuck, I am here to help. The goal is not to eliminate difficult moments and memories, but to learn new tools and develop better insight to manage that difficulty and pain. We will start by exploring and breaking disruptive cycles to create an atmosphere for healing. Therapy is a collaborative process, and my goal is to offer a supportive environment that facilitates meaningful change and assists you in developing better methods of coping with daily struggles.
I have worked in schools, employment offices, social services, and behavioral hospital settings. These environments have given me the privilege of working with diverse populations and the opportunity to engage with various levels of the complex mental health and social service systems. I have extensive experience supporting individuals with anxiety, stress, depression, and various other mental health issues. I am also here to assist with navigating systems of care beyond our sessions together. I hope to be a partner as you begin your journey toward healing.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
