- LCSW-R
I truly believe that therapy can benefit anyone, and I love building connections with my clients as we work together toward their goals. I have a deep passion for getting to know people—their stories, strengths, and the unique challenges they face—and helping them grow in ways that feel meaningful and lasting. Outside of work, you’ll often find me spending time with family, catching up with friends, watching my favorite shows, or relaxing with my cats.
My specialties include life transitions, stress management, anxiety, depression, behavior management and coping difficulties. I am also certified in Perinatal Mental Health and I really enjoy working with those trying to conceive, expecting and new parents.

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.
