- LCSW
As a seasoned therapist with over three decades of experience, I bring a compassionate and nuanced approach to supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My professional journey has been dedicated to helping clients navigate relationship dynamics, communication barriers, and personal growth.
I specialize in working with individuals facing diverse experiences, including LGBTQ+ concerns, family conflicts, career transitions, and personal development. My therapeutic approach is rooted in understanding and addressing challenges like isolation, shame, guilt, and interpersonal dynamics.
I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, develop healthier communication strategies, and work through difficult emotions. Whether you're dealing with relationship issues, seeking personal growth, or navigating significant life transitions, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.
My practice is inclusive and affirming, particularly for those seeking a liberal, Christian-informed perspective that respects individual journeys and experiences. I believe in creating a collaborative environment where clients can discover their strengths and develop meaningful strategies for 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.
