Rob and I connect well. I think hes probably not right for everyone, and I think he would agree with that but as more stern person, he gets through to me in the way a more passive therapist would not.

As a licensed therapist with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions and personal challenges. My practice focuses on helping clients address stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and self-esteem concerns. I have extensive expertise working with diverse populations, including men, veterans, individuals experiencing midlife transitions, and those managing workplace and family challenges.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate and collaborative, designed to help clients develop stronger communication skills, explore personal growth, and cultivate self-understanding. I'm particularly skilled in supporting individuals working through panic disorders, mood challenges, impulsivity, and relationship complexities.
I bring a depth of professional knowledge to our work together, with a commitment to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop more fulfilling life strategies. My goal is to empower you to build resilience, enhance self-awareness, and create meaningful personal transformation.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
