When you reflect on your relationships with friends, romantic partners, or family members does it bring up feelings of being misunderstood or devalued? Do you find yourself struggling to manage overwhelming feelings of sadness, worry, grief, or anger? Perhaps you are simply fed up with repeating unhealthy patterns in your life and are unsure how to break them? As a licensed clinical social worker, I leverage an integrative and culturally-informed approach to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. My practice is informed by clinical training in solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy and is further guided by 25 years of professional experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and youth, as well as, military members, veterans, leadership, and professional teams. Through my work, I specialize in helping clients: 1) Mitigate stress, anxiety, and depression; 2) Address complex relationship issues and family dynamics; and 3) Foster coping skills to manage grief, loss, and anger. We can work together to develop the skills, confidence, and insight needed to pursue your most authentic self. Taking the first step to seeking a happier and more fulfilling life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

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.
