I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. I work with clients across the lifespan, from young adults navigating identity and purpose to older adults facing life transitions. My practice is grounded in affirming, culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique identity and lived experience.
I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, particularly around identity exploration, self-love, and healing from trauma. I also work with clients managing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and ADHD, as well as those navigating relationship challenges, isolation, communication difficulties, and life transitions like divorce or midlife changes.
My approach addresses a wide range of concerns, including panic and anxiety disorders, OCD, phobias, posttraumatic stress, mood disorders, codependency, chronic pain, and gender dysphoria. I'm committed to helping you build resilience, improve communication, explore forgiveness, and reconnect with your sense of purpose.
I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen and valued. My work is person-centered and trauma-informed, drawing on evidence-based practices to support your healing at your own pace. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater peace and authenticity.

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.
