- LPC
Hello! I'm a licensed professional counselor with 10 years of professional work practice. Before becoming a counselor I was a high school special education teacher for 21 years. I work full time for Veteran Affairs as a couples and family counselor. I have experience helping clients with complex trauma, stress and anxiety, relationship issues, identity concerns, family conflicts, low motivation and confidence, and poor self esteem. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy, and Conjoint Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for PTSD. I believe in meeting clients where they are and incorporating a flexible and collaborative approach to ensure progress and improvement.

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.
