- LCSW-C
As an experienced clinical social worker and Army Veteran, I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to therapy, specializing in helping individuals navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and motivation struggles. With over five years of experience in social work, I have worked extensively with diverse populations, empowering clients to develop coping strategies that foster resilience and well-being.
My background in military service gives me a unique understanding of the challenges faced by veterans and service members, and I am deeply committed to supporting those in need. As the founder of a nonprofit organization dedicated to aiding homeless veterans, I am passionate about advocacy and providing holistic, culturally sensitive interventions to help individuals achieve stability and fulfillment.
Currently pursuing my Doctor of Social Work (DSW) degree, I am dedicated to advancing my expertise and contributing to the field through research and leadership. Whether you’re facing life transitions, emotional distress, or seeking personal growth, I offer a supportive space to explore challenges and develop practical solutions for lasting change.

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.
