I am an independently licensed clinical social worker in the District of Columbia. I have over 25 years of behavioral health experience helping people who have either a mental health or a substance use concern, or both.

My style is warm, direct, and caring. I use an eclectic variety of therapy modalities based on an individuals needs. I approach my work from a person centered base and select the therapy tools to best help the individual based on their specific needs.

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.
