Honesty. Vulnerability. Courage. If you're reading this right now, you're likely seeking positive change in your life. It takes someone truly honest with themselves to reach out when they need help. It takes vulnerability to talk about it. It takes courage to follow through. Sometimes we feel stuck in life and come to a bridge we must cross. Are you looking for a therapist who is real, genuine, & can guide you across?

With over 10 years of mental health experience & advanced training in IFS, anxiety, trauma & mindfulness, I've developed a compassionate & personalized approach to therapy.

Ending stigma around mental health is my passion. I empower individuals to transform their pain into strength, addressing anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and other challenges. I draw from evidence-based therapies like CBT, IFS, DBT, & mindfulness to guide them in discovering their unique path to healing & growth.

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.
