- Psychologist
I am a Licensed Psychologist with 30 years of experience working in the mental health field. I was licensed to provide counseling services at the Masters Level from 1998 until I became licensed at the Doctoral level at 2014. I have a broad range of experience. I’ve worked with individuals across the life span from toddlers through geriatric patients in many different settings. Some issues I have worked with consistently over the years include mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. I also have considerable experience assisting individuals in dealing with trauma.
My approach is Person Centered along with motivational interviewing and at times techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy or mindfulness therapy as a supplement. This means that I meet you where you’re at. I firmly believe we all strive toward positive growth when given the opportunity. I strive to build a safe relationship with you where I will be genuine, treat you with unconditional positive regard (no judgement), and empathy. I want to walk with you through your journey and help you create the change you are seeking in your life.

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.
