- LMFT
As a licensed therapist with over twenty years of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate challenges related to stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, and significant life transitions.
I am deeply committed to creating a compassionate, supportive environment where individuals can explore their inner experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My approach centers on understanding each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in addressing issues like communication difficulties, life purpose, and emotional healing.
My therapeutic work spans a wide range of concerns, including workplace stress, relationship dynamics, midlife transitions, young adult challenges, and women's mental health. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, build resilience, and cultivate greater self-understanding and empowerment.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I help individuals develop practical coping skills, improve interpersonal relationships, and move towards more fulfilling, authentic lives. My goal is to empower clients to reconnect with their inner strength and create positive, sustainable change.

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.
