- LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have been in private practice for 17 years and have worked with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, trauma, and relationship issues.
My counseling style is humanistic and processed-oriented and I believe that the most effective healing strategy is to offer clients unconditional positive regard. My approaches include cognitive-behavioral strategies and mindfulness techniques. I meet you where you are in your spiritual/emotional/therapeutic journey.
You have taken the first step in creating a more fulfilling and purposeful life for yourself. I am looking forward to being a part of your healing process.

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.
