I'm a therapist with a decade of experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. I work with clients navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and significant life changes, helping them rebuild self-esteem and find meaning during difficult seasons.
My approach is grounded in compassion and understanding. I specialize in addressing isolation, loneliness, guilt, shame, and codependency patterns. I'm particularly skilled at helping clients explore their sense of purpose, work through control issues, and navigate women's experiences with sensitivity and care.
I'm honored to work with LGBTQ+ clients, older adults, and those seeking a secular, non-religious therapeutic space. I bring genuine warmth and attunement to our work together, recognizing that compassion fatigue and burnout are real challenges many face.
I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you lead, and I support. My role is to listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and help you discover your own wisdom and resilience. If you're ready to take that first step, I'm here to walk alongside you with care and respect.

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.
