You shouldn't go through this journey alone and I am so glad you have taken the first step to making a change. Striving to be the best and healthiest version of yourself is NOT easy! I would love to hear everything about your unique self, free of judgment, where you can feel safe, accepted and authentically you. Armed with the appropriate knowledge and tools, I believe we can tackle life's many challenges and obstacles together.
My approach is warm, structured, and goal oriented. Trauma can impact how we think, feel, & respond to the world around us. Using trauma-focused CBT, we can work together to gently process difficult experiences, build coping skills, and reduce the emotional distress connected to past events. I tailor each session to your pace, strengths, and personal goals.
Healing from trauma can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and truly understood. If you are ready to begin your healing journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you and support you every step of the way.

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.
