Pain is a requirement for living a full life with an open heart. Processing the pain of full-living takes time and energy and many of us put off tending to our emotional and psychological needs in order to respond to immediate tasks of work and home. Disconnecting from one’s own body, mind and spirit leads to suffering, in addition to the normal, expected pain of full living. My therapeutic approach honors the realities of what it means to be human, invites clients to return home to themselves including their values and goals, and offers useful feedback based on observations and your narrative to help you awaken to your conditioned thinking and acting, opening up the window for mindful choice and fuller, more rewarding living.

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.
