In times of darkness and difficulty, Hope can be a beacon of light that guides us forward. My passion is to plant seeds of Hope. Through Hope we gain the power to transform our lives and illuminate even the darkest paths. My goal is to help support you as you take steps toward healing and happiness.
Life often presents us with challenges that can feel overwhelming and uncertain. But within these challenges lie opportunities for growth, strength, freedom, and resilience. Whether you're navigating stress, depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, or have experienced a traumatic event or childhood trauma, you don't have to face them alone.
With over 18 years of experience in education, coupled with the joys and trials of being a wife and mother of three, I bring a wealth of empathy, understanding, and practical wisdom to my counseling practice.
I am passionate about empowering individuals like you to overcome obstacles, discover your inner strength, and create a life filled with peace and joy.
Thank you for considering me as your partner on this journey towards a brighter tomorrow.

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.
