I believe therapy should be non-judgmental and collaborative. From this starting point, I practice from a place of openness and curiosity, where I strive to create a comfortable, safe space that makes each individual feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. To do so, I utilize evidence-based techniques such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, as well as Internal Family Systems and Psychoeducation. Having more than one option gives me the ability to tailor my approach and intervention based on client needs. I believe that self-compassion and self-reflection are the keys to growth and healing. I work collaboratively with clients to support them in finding relief from challenging thought patterns, behaviors, and personal judgment. I strive to support clients in practicing self-love and mindfulness so they can better recognize their potential and find peace and healing in the process. Progress is not always linear, and when there are hiccups in the path it becomes very easy to punish oneself or focus on the negative. Working closely with my clients to celebrate the victories, and to not ruminate on setbacks is essential. In my work, I strive to find a middle path, as my belief is that each client is their own expert on their recovery. My approach is to make each session safe and respectful, while also challenging when needed. Clients should feel empowered and supported to be more involved in their treatment as they know themselves better than anyone. Ultimately, my clients are their own best resource when it comes to treatment, and my role is to help guide and encourage their journey.

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.
