Where compassion meets structure, my practice delivers therapy that is immediately usable and evidence-based. I bring extensive experience across settings and populations such as children, adolescents, transition-age youth, adults; justice-involved clients; foster care/TAY; LGBTQ+ and culturally diverse communities. My work centers on integrated care for co-occurring disorders, treating mental health and substance use together rather than in silos. Clinically, I draw on DBT (emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, mindfulness), CBT/CBT-p, Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and evidence-based addiction treatment, using harm-reduction or abstinence pathways aligned with client goals. Collaboration with caregivers, schools, courts, and medical providers ensures coherent, systems-aware care. Grounded in Self-Determination Theory, I focus on strengthening autonomy, competence, and relatedness so skills hold outside session. Common concerns include co-occurring disorders, substance use/recovery, bipolar I/II, schizophrenia, trauma and complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, anger/impulse control, sleep disturbance, and family/relationship conflict. Expect clear plans, weekly skills practice, and routine outcome check-ins.

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.
