I am a Clinical Social Worker with a variety of life experience as well as a decade working as a Social Worker. My experiences include addictions, grief and loss, as well as many other issues most people experience during some difficult part of their life. Encouraging clients in life changes is rewarding and usually very productive for those who engage with me. I enjoy listening to your story at your pace and learning about you and your concerns with warmth and empathy. We will work on coping skills you can start using right away to deal with symptoms you may be experiencing.

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.
