Therapy is a journey you use to better your life. I will be your guide. I will help you to identify your needs and work towards your goal. I am a licensed LPC and have a background in marriage and family therapy and also work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, and other emotional states. I have worked with several different psychiatric diagnoses across most age groups in my few years of experience. My approach combines attachment styles with solution focused therapy. I do try to integrate several different strategies and techniques into our sessions to keep it interactive and beneficial to you.

I applaud your progress for even taking the step to reach out for help. Lets take the next steps together!

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.
