Hello: I am happy to meet with you! I am a caring, kind and altruistic therapist with you in mind. I start my sessions with a assessment of your personal goals and what you want to achieve in the therapeutic relationship. I will use all the appropriate therapy approaches to support you with attaining the goals you identified in the initial session. I will use all my skills with a caring positive stance to help you in the process of recovery from the symptoms that caused you to seek therapy. I have worked in the field of mental health since 1996 at various capacities. I began as a recreation therapist in 1996 and provided recreation programs for adults and children with mental or physical disabilities. In 2011, I completed my master's degree in Marriage and Family therapy, and I am licensed in the state of Nevada and California. I have been working as a therapist for over 14 years.; I am delighted to be serving you in the awesome and pleasant process of achieving you dream life and desired outcomes.

As I have stated, I have many years of service as a mental health professional and have vast experience helping people cope with complex issues, mental health symptoms and working towards their identified goals. I also have done counseling from a Biblical perspective, and can support people who want Christian based counseling, resolve issues and achieve their goals. My work as a Christian counselor includes using Biblical ethics of establishing peace, health and emotional wellness while working on the individual's desired outcomes. My experience also includes extensive work with the teenage population. I use all therapeutic interventions appropriate for the individual to support them with self-esteem, healthy boundaries, living a healthy, happy life, while working on their identified goals. Finally, I have counseled many couples and have the experience and skills to support them with resolving relational issues, keeping the relationship strong and healthy, and achieving amicable communication between each partner. I am looking forward to the opportunity to work with you, help you cope with the issues that you want to resolve in the therapeutic relationship. It is my greatest desire to support you with achieving a beautiful life.

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.
