I was skeptical about using an app for therapy but I couldnt be any happier. Katie has been super responsive and had really made me feel like she cares about my concerns and has made me feel like I'm her priority. I'm super happy with her and the app.

Seeking therapy does not have to start when you are feeling your worst. Therapy helps maintain a level of functioning to continue on your road to success. However, if you are in a place where you feel hopeless, you've already taken a huge step in your recovery. It is not easy to ask for help. I have been in this field for over 10 years. I graduated from University of Maryland, Baltimore with my Masters of Social Work. I strive hard to provide a professional, non-judgmental, safe space for you to work through your smallest and biggest of problems.
I have experience with all age groups. I used a variety of evidence and strength based approaches to assist all clients to help themselves to achieve their personal goals. I have been trained in trauma informed therapy and have additional training in military PTSD.
Additionally, I have knowledge and training in Employee Assistance Programs. Helping clients through personal problems increases productivity and presenteeism & absenteeism at work.

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.
