Are you experiencing chronic stress and looking for ways to navigate events from the past or recent obstacles life has thrown at you? Stress, major life events, and past traumas can make it difficult to manage competing demands on your time and energy, decision-making, and managing emotions effectively. I specialize in supporting clients struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, major life transitions, stress, and relationship difficulties. I help adults/adolescents challenge negative thinking and critical self-talk, find solutions to current problems, and recognize their strengths, positive attributes, and intrinsic motivation.

I aim to help you find peace and acceptance, feel whole, and heal from your past. A safe space is vital in therapy and begins with building trust. This space is created not only by me getting to know you, but by allowing you the time to become comfortable with me, earn your trust, and feel confident in me as your clinician.

If you are experiencing any of the things above and are ready to prioritize yourself and your mental health, please reach out. I am here to support you!

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.
