I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting young adults and individuals navigating life's most challenging transitions. With experience working with depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns, I help clients build resilience and develop meaningful coping strategies tailored to their unique needs.
My work focuses on communication difficulties, social anxiety, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and self-harm. I also support those managing chronic pain and illness, eating-related concerns, and the complexities of ADHD and impulsivity. I approach each person with genuine curiosity and respect for their individual values and perspectives.
I believe in creating a collaborative, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood. My therapeutic approach draws on evidence-based practices to help you move through difficult emotions, build stronger relationships, and reconnect with your sense of self. Whether you're facing a major life change or working through long-standing struggles, I'm here to walk alongside you with compassion and authenticity.
Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to support you on your journey.

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.
