I am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly heard. My approach blends evidence-based practices with empathy, tailoring each session to meet the unique needs of the individual. I believe healing and growth happen through connection, and I strive to empower clients with tools and insights to navigate life’s challenges. My goal is to walk alongside you as you discover resilience, clarity, and renewed strength.
I view therapy as a collaborative process grounded in compassion, trust, and respect. I work alongside clients to explore their unique experiences, helping them uncover strengths while developing new tools for growth and healing. My style is warm, relational, and grounded in evidence-based practices, blending practical strategies with deep empathy. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, supported, and empowered—and I strive to create that environment in every session.
Clients can expect to leave sessions with greater clarity, insight, and practical tools they can use in daily life. Together, we explore patterns and challenges while building self-compassion, resilience, and confidence. My goal is to help each client uncover their strengths and feel empowered to make meaningful changes. Over time, this process fosters deeper healing, healthier boundaries, and a stronger sense of balance and purpose.

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.
