- LCSW, LICSW
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in Washington state and Kentucky with over 10 years of professional work experience. I aim to provide a non-judgmental space to walk alongside you in your journey of learning new ways to process life’s challenges and difficult emotions related, to understand one’s self, and better relate to the world around you. Our time together will be focused on understanding yourself more fully, resolving conflicts, processing your pain, and identifying together your less than helpful coping mechanisms to find peace and freedom. Therapy is your process; I just help facilitate the process alongside you. My goal in our work together is meet you exactly where you are, seek to understand you and empower you.

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.
