- LMHC
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been in practice for over 10 years. I have worked mostly with children and adolescents and early 20s. I practice EMDR under consultation and I am a certified Autism Specialist. Try me out lets see if we click. Counseling is all about connection. If I am the counselor for you great, if not lets get you to the right one. I hope I can be here and get you on the right path. We all hurt, we all laugh, we all love, and we all fail. We just need to learn how to cope with all our failures and success. Most importantly, we just need a nonjudgmental person to talk too. That is me!

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.
