My philosophy and approach to counseling is a holistic approach. Helping to develop a better self awareness and understanding of oneself. To assist in mental health issues that have impacted a person's life that would prevent the ability to cope and focus on specific challenges and daily tasks.

I use turning obstacles into opportunities. Remember that you are stronger than any problem you may encounter or any disappointments life will bring

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.
