More about Scarlett
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I'm a therapist, with 3 years of experience, who is dedicated to supporting clients through depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and eating disorders. I work with individuals navigating social anxiety, isolation, communication challenges, and life transitions like divorce and separation. I'm also experienced in addressing body image concerns, abandonment wounds, and the lasting effects of trauma.
My approach centers on fostering self-love, facilitating forgiveness, and building meaningful connections. I'm committed to helping you develop healthier communication patterns and work through impulsivity and relational patterns that may be holding you back.
I bring a trauma-informed, client-centered perspective to our work together, grounded in compassion and respect for your unique journey. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing and greater peace in your life. I'm fluent in both English and Spanish, and I'm proud to offer culturally responsive care that honors your values and identity.

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.
