My clients face difficult challenges such as past trauma showing up in the present, as well as anxiety, depression, late diagnoses for ADHD and autism, and struggles in their interpersonal relationships. They are looking for support to help them achieve their goals of feeling better, experiencing more joy and peace in their lives, living authentically, being in loving and connected community with others, gaining more self-awareness through personal growth.
I work with my clients through a decolonized lens, acknowledging the systems that affect them while also recognizing their power. Utilizing a mix of therapeutic orientations such as existential, psychodynamic, strengths-based, and if needed utilizing the Brainspotting protocol, I help them see things in a new light and navigate the world in a different way.
I would love to work together with you to find ways to support you in achieving not only your therapeutic goals, but also your personal goals. Let's collaborate and come up with a path of action that we will walk together to get you to space where you experience more peace, calm, and connection both mentally and emotionally.

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.
