Are you struggling to cope with everyday stressors? Are you feeling anxious, depressed or? Do you want to improve the way you handle problems? Do you want to increase your self-awareness? Whatever it is you may be experiencing, I can help you move beyond your struggles and guide you on a new path. We will work together to challenge the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that prevent you from moving forward. I focus my work with my clients on creating long-lasting cognitive and behavioral changes. Together, we bridge the gap between mental health and physical health and take an integrated coaching approach to better improve your overall wellbeing. My clients are those who want to focus on creating healthier habits, both physically and mentally. I and clients believe that all of the parts of the self are interconnected, from physical symptoms to emotions, and social interactions. Living a healthy life means having a balance between your physical, mental, and social wellbeing.
My education and background includes a MA in Professional Counseling and an EdD in Educational Leadership. Additionally, I have over 15 years experience counseling families and adults.
You can trust that through your healing journey, I will treat you with compassion and respect. I use a supportive and nurturing approach in therapy. Individuals can come to me for support, guidance, and education. Let me help you to gain enjoyment, serenity and peace in your life.

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.
