Your unique challenges, background, strengths, and life experiences will guide me as we collaborate on treatment goals and explore how to reach them. My first task is to practice active listening and nonjudgmental curiosity as we get to know one another. I believe that the relationship between client and therapist is what can provide the space for healing, growth, and improved mental health. Therapists are human, too, and we are constantly learning as we go. This is why I see clients as creative partners, not patients. We are in this unique process together.
I work from a culturally sensitive, eclectic, integrative, psychodynamic style of intervention. Together we can prioritize your individual needs to boost your mood, decrease worry, calm your anxiety, be authentic and present, reduce stress, and feel empowered. I work from a strengths-based perspective and with compassion, empathy and listening I specialize in disorders such as Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, PTSD, Addictions, Trauma, Life Transitions, Depression, and Anxiety. I work using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalytic, other Postmodern theoretical bases from a Humanistic perspective. I incorporate biofeedback, guided imagery, narrative therapy, mindfulness-based holistic interventions, and psychodynamic treatment strategies.

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.
