I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most meaningful transitions and challenges. My work centers on helping people cultivate deeper self-love, strengthen their relationships, and navigate career decisions with clarity and confidence.
I specialize in addressing intimacy and connection—both with others and within yourself. I work with parents seeking to build stronger family dynamics, individuals exploring their life purpose, and those working through social anxiety, isolation, and feelings of guilt or shame. I'm also passionate about supporting people as they navigate major life changes and transitions.
My approach emphasizes open, honest communication and the power of forgiveness—both toward others and yourself. I believe that meaningful change happens when we create space for authentic dialogue and self-compassion.
Whether you're seeking to improve your relationships, find direction in your career, or simply reconnect with yourself, I'm here to walk alongside you with warmth, insight, and genuine care. I'm honored to support you on your journey toward greater fulfillment and peace.
My very special clinical interest is working with women and their families managing postpartum depression.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
