Hi! I am looking forward to hearing your story and finding out how I can support you. My style as a therapist is first and foremost to keep it super real and genuine. I will encourage you to come as you are and be yourself! I’m not here to judge but to be curious about how your life experiences have led you to where you are today. I love working with teens the most and I find that my connection with them is very unique. I also love working with the Neurodiverse population and putting those two together is even better! Teens on the spectrum are the best! Please reach out if you think we would be a good fit!

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.
