- LMFT
I draw from a variety of therapeutic disciplines to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom, heal wounds from the past, and strengthen your sense of self. With this foundation I guide you to build healthier relationships and create the life that you desire.
I have a relational and collaborative approach to therapy because trust is the foundation of a healthy therapeutic relationship. My work is integrative of mind, body, and spirit because I believe that the process of transformation involves all aspects of who we are. I also have a social justice orientation that addresses the social conditioning which contributes to our personal and collective suffering.
Who I work with
I work with individual adults and couples from a variety of gender identifications, sexual orientations, and ethnic backgrounds.
I can help people struggling with the following issues: anxiety and depression, grief and loss, addiction and recovery, healing from trauma, relationship and family issues, and personal growth and development.
How I Can Help
You might come to therapy for a variety of reasons ranging from personal growth and development to addressing serious illnesses such as Depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I will work with you to identify the root cause of the patterns that are creating disease and disharmony in your life. We will work together to increase your connection to internal and external resources to support you through the process of transforming old ways of being that are no longer serving you. You will begin to develop a more profound sense of stability within yourself that can bring you a greater sense of ease, freedom, and fulfillment in your life.

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.
