As a licensed therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and discover deeper life purpose. I have extensive experience working with mood disorders and challenges related to stress, anxiety, and life transitions.
My therapeutic practice focuses on creating a compassionate, collaborative space where clients can explore personal growth, heal from past experiences, and develop resilient coping strategies. I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to providing personalized support that honors individual strengths and experiences.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help clients work through difficult emotions like guilt, shame, and self-doubt while building stronger self-esteem and emotional wellness. Whether you're struggling with relationship dynamics, caregiver stress, or seeking greater personal understanding, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.

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.
