- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Indiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop resilience, self-compassion, and meaningful strategies for personal growth. I have extensive experience addressing challenges like stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and grief.
My therapeutic work focuses on empowering individuals struggling with isolation, body image concerns, caregiver stress, and questions of life purpose. I believe in creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their inner experiences and develop stronger self-understanding.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I collaborate with clients to build personalized coping skills, enhance emotional well-being, and support transformative healing. My goal is to walk alongside you as you rediscover your inherent strength and create positive, sustainable changes in your life.

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.
