Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion to help others create the best version of themselves. I have been a social worker for 15 years and have worked with multiple diverse populations in non profit settings, medical and behavioral health hospitals and private clinics. Life can be overwhelming so I utilize a holistic approach to view many aspects of life and how they can impact our wellbeing. I believe in breaking down tasks with small and attainable goals to identify and treat any underlying issues.
I provide a safe, judgement free space where people are able to be express themselves. I can't wait to talk more and look forward to meeting you!

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.
