As a licensed therapist in Kansas with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and self-esteem concerns. I have expertise in working with diverse populations, including young adults, older adults, and individuals experiencing workplace stress, social anxiety, and midlife transitions.

About online counseling

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.
