I am licensed in Washington with 22 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients through their personal healing process from history of trauma & abuse, grief & loss, anger management, relationship problems, emotion dysregulation, roadblocks to forgiveness, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts, feelings, & beliefs can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

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.
