I'm a therapist with experience supporting clients through a wide range of life challenges. I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, stress, and addiction, as well as relationship concerns including family conflict, intimacy issues, and communication difficulties.
My practice is grounded in cultural responsiveness and inclusivity. I'm committed to creating a welcoming space for clients from diverse backgrounds and identities, and I bring awareness to how multicultural experiences, discrimination, and systemic factors shape your wellbeing.
I specialize in helping clients explore deeper concerns such as trauma, attachment patterns, codependency, self-worth, and life purpose. I also support those working through major life transitions like divorce, grief, and identity questions. Additionally, I work with clients addressing sexual health, process addictions, eating concerns, financial stress, and other complex issues.
My approach is collaborative and person-centered. I believe in meeting you where you are and working together to build insight, resilience, and meaningful change. I'm honored to support you on your healing journey.

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.
