My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I help clients understand the patterns behind their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships so they can respond rather than react. I draw from CBT informed and DBT informed skills, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Care to help clients manage triggers, reduce rumination, calm an overactive mind, regulate emotions, and improve relationships. When it fits a client's goals, I can also integrate Relapse Prevention strategies and 12-Step Principles if desired. My role is to offer steady support, structure, and accountability, while helping clients build practical tools for lasting change.

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.
