My License is in Marriage and Family Therapy and have about 20 yrs. experience working with a diverse range of clients, primarily in the public system. I have particularly worked in the field of trauma, abuse, conflict due to race or religion, change of life events, situational depression, and adjustment difficulties. I volunteered abroad to be available for those impacted by war trauma, whether they were civilians, veterans, or first responders. Having been part of several volunteer engagements in the community and abroad has also provided me with several years of experience working with displaced families representing many different cultures and ethnic groups.
I hope you will take your first step in beginning this journey of healing towards a more fulfilling life. It is understandable if at the beginning the whole process may feel a bit uncomfortable, but I can assure you a safe space for you to share your feelings. You will not be alone. We will work together on leading you out of that place of pain. To help you make the right choice, you may need to know that I am an "old-fashioned" Therapist, so if your therapy preference is chatting and messaging over live video sessions, perhaps I am not the best choice. My approach is tailored according to each client's needs. The psychodynamic model has been my preference, but I will incorporate any of the many other tools and treatments that have proved effective according to best practices.
My greatest reward is to see you through the end of the therapeutic relationship with an increased ability to function comfortably, having acquired some tools to give you the confidence that you can manage yourself and thus move forward in your life.

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.
