My practice specializes in helping clients address stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and ADHD-related concerns. I focus on improving communication skills and supporting those struggling with social anxiety and interpersonal dynamics.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative and compassionate, designed to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop meaningful insights, and cultivate practical strategies for personal growth.

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.
