It was pure magic being paired with Genevieve. She is such a positive influence in my life and helped me navigate difficult decisions throughout the time I met with her. The ease of talking to her made the experience of being in therapy so much more memorable and impactful.

I tend to try and deal with things on my own so when I finally got to the point where I decided I needed therapy, I was really lucky to find Genevieve. I was lucky in finding a therapist who understood a lot of the hobbies, gets on tangents with me, and manages to get me to talk about my problems as I usually try to brush them under the rug. I enjoy that we have similar personality traits, so that I have someone who relates while also being able to give professional ideas and tips on how to better myself. I feel more comfortable talking to her than I usually do with anyone else!

I am a therapist known for my warmth and compassion, who works to see the world from the perspective of each client, and support and empower without judgement. After a career change in 2013, I have over four years of therapy experience sharing my love of life while building hope, confidence, and long-lasting positive change. I am a relationship builder who adapts around each client's specific needs. I have experience working with stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, and increasing motivation and self-esteem. I feel I have many gifts that strengthen my practice: a passion for connection and collaboration, expertise in evaluation and problem-solving, and a diverse life experience. Guided by the client's desires and needs, I utilize interventions from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Responsive Care among other evidence-based practices. I am here to support and empower you in your journey toward positive change.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
