Starting therapy can be a scary and intimidating process. I strive to make our meetings as natural, relational and supportive as possible, so that therapy is something you can look forward to and embrace. I am an even-keel person by nature and I bring that to therapy. I create a calming and accepting environment that allows you to share your experiences honestly and without shame, empowering you to safely collaborate in charting a path forward. I want you to feel safe to admit where your life is not working and embrace new, challenging solutions.
My therapeutic style incorporates a number of frameworks, including Client-centered techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). I am also experienced with integrating Christian spiritual practices into the counseling process, though I only do so to the extent that they are requested or embraced by the client.
It takes great courage to take an honest look at your life and invite someone else into your story for help. It can be scary, but it can also be one of the most powerful, impactful things you ever do. Take the first step! I look forward to working with you.

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.
