We are made of stories—stitched together by memory, experience, longing, and the quiet hope that healing is possible. My work is to listen for those stories. To hold them gently. To help you find the threads you want to keep, and the ones you're ready to release.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I’ve sat with people navigating the raw edges of trauma, the ache of anxiety, the fog of depression, the quiet complexity of ADHD. I’ve held space for survivors of sexual assault, for those untangling themselves from religious wounds, for souls reckoning with illness, identity, and the grief of what was never given.

This isn’t a space of judgment. It’s a space of returning—to yourself, your voice, your power. Whether you're arriving with specific pain or a sense that something inside you is stirring, you are welcome here. You are not too much. You are not too late.

This is the beginning of something real. Let’s find it together.

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.
