I have four years of clinical experience helping individuals and families deal with life's transitions and struggles. I take a compassionate, person-centered approach to helping clients. I focus on helping clients address issues with relationship struggles, stress and anxiety, religious issues, and support through life transitions. I believe that while we all struggle at different times, we also have the ability to move toward our goals of healing. My goal is to help you be the person you want to be.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
