Are you struggling with or just need a helping hand with feelings of depression, anxiety, substance use disorder, life transitions, or issues with a family member who is on the spectrum? I believe through hard work between therapist and client that all things are possible. We start by meeting where you are at.
My approach is an individualized strengths-based approach including components of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy). I assist adolescents through end of life in achieving their goals.
For over 25 years, I have done work ranging from helping pregnant teens in navigating their difficult situations to counseling families through end-of-life issues and all matters in between. Simply I LOVE to help people and believe through therapy we can achieve your goals, resolve past issues, and improve your overall mental and emotional wellbeing.
Starting on the therapy journey can be scary but can lead to a rewarding outcome. Please allow me to help you navigate through depression, anxiety, life transitions, substance use disorder, relationship conflicts, medical issues, and/or autism spectrum disorder challenges. “Behind you are your memories, before you are your dreams, within you all you need

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.
