More about Trisha

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

As a compassionate therapist with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem issues through a faith-informed, holistic approach.

I understand the intricate ways life transitions, social dynamics, and personal struggles can impact mental wellness. My therapeutic work spans diverse areas including family dynamics, chronic health challenges, mood disorders, and interpersonal communication. I'm particularly committed to supporting women, individuals experiencing isolation, and those working through complex emotional experiences.

My approach integrates evidence-based practices with a deep respect for each person's unique spiritual and emotional journey. I create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, social anxiety, or navigating significant life transitions, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

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.
