Change is one of the few constants in life. It can come through major adjustments like career shifts, loss, deployments, school, or stepping out of your comfort zone—circumstances that can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Remember, you’re not alone. I am here to support you through these challenges, helping you find healing, growth, and the clarity to move forward.
I create individualized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach incorporates ethical, evidence-based practices in Mental Health Counseling.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
