  • LCSW-C

Greetings!

Thank you for considering me as a possible clinician. I am very passionate about all things mental health and would love the opportunity to support and assist you with your counseling needs.

Currently training and supervising other therapists has taken up a great deal of my schedule at work, and therefore, I am able to provide therapeutic services in partnership with BetterHelp.

I have twenty years of experience working with children, adolescents, families, and adults providing therapeutic support and services. My specialties are indicated as follows, however most importantly, I am a great listener, a super encourager, and clinically skilled:

Anxiety and depression, crisis intervention, substance abuse/addiction counseling, post-trauma (i.e. community violence/assaults, survivors of World Trade attacks), child neglect/abuse, domestic violence, gang-violence, homelessness, and spectrum or chronic psychiatric diagnoses, such as autism, psychosis, schizophrenia, and personality disorders.

Should you like to try one session to see how things go, I’d be honored to speak with you!

Kindest thanks,

Be well!

~Ms. T

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
