Yo! Feeling like life's throwing dodgeballs at your face? Don't sweat it, I'm a therapist with 8 years of experience in the Aussie trenches, helping folks like you dodge addiction's hooks, untangle family knots, mend trauma scars, and figure out the whole confusing love puzzle. We'll build a chill zone where you can vent without filters, no judgment here. Taking the first step to therapy is epic, so props to you for being a total badass!

Here's why you might wanna hang with me:

a. Dodging Addiction's Uppercuts: Been feeling like something's controlling your game? We'll train you to throw back those punches and reclaim your power.

b. Untangling Family Spaghetti: From burnt toast battles to silent treatment storms, I've seen it all (and probably cooked worse). Let's untangle those noodles and create a family feast you actually enjoy.

c. Mending Trauma Scars: Life throws shade, but your battle scars don't define you. We'll turn those wounds into warrior badges and show you how to rock 'em with pride.

d. Cracking the Love Code: Butterflies MIA? Stuck in the friend-zone quicksand? Let's navigate the feels rollercoaster together and find your happily-ever-after (whatever that means for you).

We'll build a chill zone where you can spill your tea (or vegemite, if you're fancy) without judgment. Taking the first step is epic, so high five for being a total legend! No pressure, just an open ear and a fist bump (or koala hug, whatever floats your boat). Let's chat and see how I can help you turn those milkshake swirls into a rad smoothie of awesome.

Remember, you're not alone in this wild ride called life. We're all on this thing together, and I'm here to be your therapist-bestie, cheering you on through every twist and turn. So, hit me up and let's make some epic memories (I can speak Khmer and English)

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
