Hello & Welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified school counselor. I have 15 years of experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, & coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
I am also a certified HeartMath practitioner for stress, anxiety, and self-regulation. I primarily use evidence-based techniques including, but not limited to solution focused counseling, HeartMath coherence building, and mindfulness. HeartMath allows a structured approach that begins with an awareness along with simple techniques to connect with the heart to manage stress and learn to regulate emotions. I can help you make the changes needed for a more peaceful 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.
