Even in the darkest hours there is hope that healing and wholeness is possible. Do you suffer with the effects of depression, anxiety, addiction, self-loathing or lack of self-esteem? Do you have trouble with anger, communication or setting boundaries? There is hope! You are the author of your own story, and a skilled, caring counselor can help you find the tools you need to navigate through the hard times and be able to feel empowered to continue writing your story.

I have 5-6 years exp. working and obtaining my licensure but over 20yrs experience working with children, adolescents and adults. People dealing with mental / behavioral health, addiction or a mixture of the two (co-occurring). Working from a trauma focused approach to identify ways of guiding you toward finding the answers you are looking for in your journey.

Currently, I can see clients age 12+ and would love to get you scheduled and meet with you soon.

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.
