Therapy can be a powerful and life-changing tool. Many clients come to me seeking guidance or direction in their lives, needing support navigating interpersonal relationships, career goals, and existential life questions. Three words that I use to describe my style of therapy are: practical, challenging, and affirming. I like to bring practicality and flexibility to my therapeutic practice: tailoring each therapy plan to the needs of the client. I challenge the thought processes and personality constructs that have caused conflict or disorder in our lives. Most importantly, I validate and affirm my clients by showing unconditional positive regard.

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.
