I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and LPC Board Qualified Supervisor, as well as Nationally Board Certified in both mental health counseling and school counseling. By using different psychological approaches, such as Cognitive, Adlerian, Behavioral, Systemic, or Solution focused Therapy, I can help you set goals and make progress towards wellness and personal growth.
For the past 20 years I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in the mental health setting. My mission is to help you gain perspective and promote healing and growth/wholeness. Come explore the issues keeping you or your loved one stuck with hopelessness or fear.
Life is a journey. It is full of ups and downs. You need balance to promote your mental, physical, and spiritual health to become the whole person that God intended you to be. Sometimes there are obstacles in our lives that keep us from reaching our full potential. Life can throw us curve balls such as divorce, family issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, and the list goes on. Whatever the problem, you need help redefining your situation to help you get better insight and resources into solutions for those problems. You have strengths and abilities within that can be utilized to help you regain hope and healing. Let's begin the journey to wholeness together!

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.
