Do you have difficulty managing your emotions? Are you frustrated with the relationships in your life? Have you gone through a traumatic experience and still feel the pain of it? I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience helping people heal their wounds. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame and my graduate degree from Harvard University. I love what I do and I create a warm and caring environment for you to explore the reasons behind why you do what you do….and then make positive changes to transform your life.
By gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and your past experiences, I will help you break patterns that are preventing you from being your best self. Through my clinical expertise and supportive counseling, your life will change and you will achieve the goals that you have for yourself and your relationships.
I will work collaboratively with you to help you gain better coping skills, more effective communication skills, and greater self-esteem. Drawing from different treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy, I will customize your therapy to meet your needs. I look forward to making lifelong changes with you.

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.
