🌿 About Me
Life can feel overwhelming sometimes—whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, relationship struggles, or just feeling stuck and unsure of your next step. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
I’ve been working with children, teens, and adults for over 13 years, and I especially love helping parents, families, and individuals who are navigating real-life challenges like emotional overwhelm, behavior concerns, or major life transitions.
My approach is warm, practical, and creative. I don’t just sit and listen—I help you build real tools and strategies you can actually use in your everyday life. I often draw from:
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Play Therapy (especially for children and parenting support)
Gottman-informed relationship strategies
Love and Logic parenting principles
I believe in focusing on your values—what truly matters to you—and helping you move toward that life, even when things feel hard.
I also understand that life isn’t always tidy. I’m a single mom of two boys, and I know firsthand how messy, exhausting, and meaningful life can be all at once. That perspective shapes how I show up: real, compassionate, and without judgment.
If faith or spirituality is important to you, I’m comfortable incorporating that into our work in a way that feels supportive and respectful of your beliefs.
When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me outside exploring, rock hunting, or enjoying good (preferably spicy) food.
💬 Communication
I respond to messages during weekdays and aim to be consistent and supportive while also maintaining healthy balance.

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.
