I am a Clinical Social Worker and have worked in the counseling field for 5 years. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling and a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice in 2011 and graduated with a master’s degree in social work in 2015 and am currently working on my doctorate in Social Work. I have met the national and New Mexico state requirements to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Substance Abuse Associate. My work history includes working with those incarcerated, abused, and neglected children and those with disabilities in the educational field. I also currently work with people suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, and adjustment issues. I focus on the person-centered, strengths-based, cognitive-behavioral, and systems theory, however, each client is approached based on their individual needs and desires for therapy.

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.
