Are you having challenges with negative memories or negative thoughts running through your mind, or telling yourself the same story over and over again, therapy can help you re-create a new story, make sense out of those old memories, and create new thoughts to replace the old thoughts. I find it to be an honor to be able to work with clients, so as to help you create a healthier and more balanced life. I look forward to working with you soon!

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.
