I have been working as a therapist for over 24 years. My approach to therapy relies on an authentic, caring relationship...within that context, our goal will be to help you to better understand the issues you are struggling with and to make positive changes in your life.

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.
