- LCSW
I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, and trauma. I'm skilled in addressing anger management, communication barriers, and the complex emotions that often accompany life transitions like divorce and separation.
I specialize in helping clients explore self-love, forgiveness, and life purpose while working through isolation, loneliness, social anxiety, guilt, and shame. I also have experience supporting those managing panic disorder and post-traumatic stress. My approach centers on understanding control issues and building healthier relational patterns.
I'm committed to creating a therapeutic space that honors your identity, values, and unique journey. I believe in meeting you where you are with compassion, respect, and genuine care as you work toward meaningful change and healing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
