- LCSW
Bell's Palsy, Divorce, Relocation, and Separation from a Job or a Relationship are some examples of life transition. Whether a life transition is planned or happens unexpectedly, it can be painful, confusing, and frustrating.
In my practice, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process your thoughts and feelings. My goal is to meet you where you are right now and help guide you through this transition.
I use motivational interviewing techniques, empowerment-based therapy, strength-based therapy, and more to help you identify, reflect, and process the barriers you feel may be keeping you from embracing or understanding where you are in your life.
Your journey starts here! Today! I look forward to embracing this journey with you!

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.
