- LCSW
I am a LCSW who focuses on issues related to mental health and spirituality. I have most experience in OCD, Anxiety and Depression, with some experience in ADHD.
My main focus in therapy is to be a warm, kind presence to all of my clients. I believe most in motivational interviewing ; CBT ; exposure therapy and emotional support.
I know how difficulty it can be to reach out for help, and I hope to make the first step as comfortable as possible.
I look forward to working with you!

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.
