If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or dealing with relationship stress, I can help you understand what’s happening and give you clear, practical steps to move forward.
I’m a Psychotherapist (AMHSW) with a background in evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, and Narrative therapy. I focus on helping you make sense of what’s going on and turning that insight into real change.
I can help with:
relationship issues and communication
anxiety and overthinking
feeling stuck or unsure what to do next
navigating stress, burnout, or life transitions
You can expect a clear, structured approach—not just talking, but practical tools you can use right away.
I respond regularly and aim to provide consistent support throughout the week.

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.
