Are you personally struggling with anxiety, addiction, or a life transition that feels heavier than you expected?
Are you and your partner feeling disconnected, stuck in painful cycles, or trying to rebuild after betrayal?
You don't have to figure it out alone. I work with couples and individuals navigating betrayal, addiction, anxiety, and major life transitions. Whether you’re trying to rebuild trust after infidelity, break destructive patterns, or regain stability during a season that feels overwhelming, therapy can help you move out of survival mode and into intentional change.
For couples, I focus on helping you step out of reactive cycles and into structured, honest conversations that rebuild safety and accountability.
For individuals, we look beneath the anxiety, substance use, or emotional overwhelm to understand what’s driving it. Together, we replace survival-based coping with grounded tools that support real growth.
I will challenge you with care. I will help you understand your patterns. And I will walk alongside you as you build something healthier — whether that’s a restored relationship or a more stable, confident version of yourself. Healing is not passive. It’s intentional. And it’s possible. Reaching out is a courageous step. I’d be honored to support you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
