I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most meaningful challenges. I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive approach to my work, honoring the unique identities and experiences of the people I serve.
I specialize in helping clients navigate relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and trauma recovery. My focus extends to supporting you with grief, career transitions, social anxiety, attachment patterns, and questions around identity and sexuality. I'm also experienced in working with women's issues, immigration concerns, military and first responder experiences, and multicultural challenges.
My therapeutic approach centers on building authentic connection and fostering self-compassion. I work with you on communication skills, processing guilt and shame, exploring life purpose, and addressing patterns that may feel limiting—whether related to control, avoidance, or commitment. I'm here to support you through major life transitions, including pregnancy, midlife shifts, and young adult challenges.
I believe in creating a space where you feel genuinely seen and respected. My goal is to walk alongside you with warmth, authenticity, and a deep commitment to your growth and healing.

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.
