It may feel like you are alone, like nobody understands you or what you are going through. Working together we can make the best possible sense of what is happening and achieve our goals.
With the use of CBT, Psychoanalytic and Brief Solution Oriented techniques we can work through issues of depression, anxiety, self-esteem and more.
I want to listen to your story, I want to understand what it is you are going through and what it is that you need that I may be able to provide.

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.
