Araby is wonderful. So validating, calm, approachable, and objective. She will ask the right questions that never make you feel threatened but do cause you to reflect on your experiences. And I’ve only grown in my wellbeing since working with her. I’ve not always had success with finding therapists I feel can connect with me in the ways I need, so I’m especially happy to be able to work with her.

Life can sometimes present challenges that feel overwhelming or interrupt your sense of peace or joy . My goal is to help you explore ways to be your best self using your own unique strengths and abilities. I have experience working with adults who have mood disorders, personality disorders, psychotic disorders, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma. I enjoy helping people along their journey to overcome obstacles and reach their full potential using multiple therapeutic modalities and interventions such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), SFT (Solution Focused Therapy), Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness. I am also nationally board certified and a member of the American Counseling Association.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
