I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 22 years of professional experience in community mental health and 5 years experience as a licensed mental health counselor. I have helped people with a wide variety of problems including management of symptoms of depression, anxiety, impulsivity and anger. I have provided effective treatment for individuals with mood disorders, personality disorders, substance abuse and addiction disorders, and psychotic disorders. I have always believed in taking an eclectic and holistic approach to healing, encouraging people to examine all aspects of their life; mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, social and vocational, and understanding how they all impact each other in positive or negative ways.
The most important ingredient for a successful counseling experience is the creation of a strong therapeutic alliance. I seek to create this through empathic and non judgmental listening, collaborative treatment planning and perhaps most importantly the development of a trusting relationship. As your therapist I will try to help you to understand the various therapeutic approaches available to us and make recommendations based on your needs, goals, personality and background. Some such approaches include Humanistic therapy and other talk therapy approaches, CBT, mindfulness and Schema therapy.
“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” People often find that first step to be the most difficult, but also the one that creates the momentum for progress and lasting change. I encourage you to start your journey now and I am here to assist and support you along the way.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
