Allow connection. Whatever's going on, we can discover what's real. I am a clinical therapist, providing treatment for bipolar moods alongside anxiety and depression during end of life circumstances. My primary goal is establishing resiliency through a trusting relationship. I strive towards stability in living in the community, better understanding ourselves in relationships, and relieving troubling circumstances. Together we can clarify what's happening, look for the ease, and find new ways for you to feel honestly alive. I use my experience from PHP/IOP/Inpatient hospitalization programs and a collection of interpersonal processes including cognitive, behavioral, humanistic, and integrative/holistic. I try to maintain the right balance of support and challenge. I listen for both what is said and not said and bring attention to emerging feelings, connections, and insights. Although successful therapy can be uncomfortable, painful, and even funny, trust and respect in the therapeutic relationship are essential to enable and promote change. Let's start!

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.
