As a licensed therapist with over 15 years of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life challenges. My approach centers on helping clients develop resilience and effective strategies for managing stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth.
I bring a compassionate and culturally responsive lens to my work, understanding that each person's journey is unique. My expertise spans areas including communication challenges, social anxiety, career transitions, and building self-esteem. I'm committed to creating a supportive, affirming space where clients can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal transformation.

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.
