Hi There! I am so glad you showed up at my page and you showed for yourself by seeking help. We will work together to tackle your issues and enhance your strengths.
I am a clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience of working with clients. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapy style is warm, energetic and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, humanistic, psychodynamic and mindfulness. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

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.
