Welcome!
A bit about me: I am a licensed mental health counselor with many years of experience in a hospital setting. Since 2019 I have worked in an outpatient behavioral health clinic where I have had the opportunity to provide telehealth counseling since March 2020. I do my best to meet people where they are and bring ideas for ways to improve their lives. My practice is individualized and draws primarily from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am a qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) instructor and mindfulness practice has been an important part of my personal growth. I am also an adjunct professor and love to teach.
I have had the honor of getting to know people when they are experiencing challenges in their lives. I appreciate the opportunity of working with individuals to bring about positive change in their lives. I appreciate the courage it takes to begin this work. I would be honored to have the opportunity to get to know you and walk along side you as you work with your current challenges.

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.
