- LCSW
As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on understanding the unique challenges of depression, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem issues. I'm deeply committed to helping clients explore personal growth, communication dynamics, and life purpose.
My practice focuses on creating a compassionate, culturally responsive space where individuals can address a wide range of concerns—from social anxiety and workplace challenges to relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and multicultural experiences. I bring a nuanced understanding to men's issues, midlife transitions, and the intricate emotional journeys that shape our lives.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in developing self-love, processing difficult emotions, and building resilience. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, relationship transitions, or seeking deeper personal understanding, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional expertise.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
