Thank you for reaching out and considering me for counseling. It takes courage to seek help and I am here to support and empower you.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, teens, adults and their families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues, self-harm, parenting problems, life challenges, emotional abuse, trauma, and lack of motivation.
I believe the counseling relationship is most important, which is why my main method of counseling is Person Centered. I accept my clients where they are at, work to develop trust and rapport. I believe your journey will be most beneficial if we work together to identify your goals, build upon your strengths and provide you with a safe space in which you can explore and grow.
I look forward to getting to know you!

About online counseling

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.
