I have worked in the counseling, human services, compassion giving fields since the 1980's. It has been my privilege to work with many people, including, but not limited to: families, teens, persons with mental health disorders, addictions, anxiety, grief, trauma, and end of life care. I use a variety of tools and therapies: Acceptance and Commitment , Narrative ,, Cognitive-Behavioral , and Solution Focused Therapies. Everyone deserves compassion, concern, and a non-judging ear. I feel life is a journey and sometimes we need to have others walk with us to our destination.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
