More about Marla
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
After 28 years as an occupational therapist helping individuals overcome physical challenges, I returned to school to pursue a career as a counselor. I believe that mental health is as important as physical ability. I also believe that it is never too late to change and that asking for help is a sign of strength rather than weakness. I do not promise immediate solutions to your struggles. I do promise to work with you to identify obstacles in your path to happiness and success. I promise you will be heard and validated and not judged. Reaching out is the first step. I am here to help you navigate your new journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
