I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who believes you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, navigating anxiety, relationship concerns, burnout, parenting stress, or a major life transition, therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I meet my clients where they are, recognizing that every person's experiences and goals are unique. Together, we'll explore what's holding you back, identify unhelpful patterns, and develop practical tools to help you create meaningful, lasting change.
I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can be honest, feel understood, and grow at your own pace. Reaching out for support is a big step, and you don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. If you're ready, I'd be honored to support you on your journey.

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.
