Hello, Life can be overwhelming at times—whether you’re facing a major life transition, a chronic medical condition, or dealing with complex emotions, therapy offers a path toward healing and clarity. You don’t have to walk that path alone; I’m here to support, encourage, and guide you every step of the way.
I believe wholeness and restoration are achieved through understanding of ourselves in relation to the world, enabling meaningful connection, emotional balance, and purposeful living. My guiding principles: Evidenced-based Trauma-informed care, Christian Faith-informed guidance. Whole-person healing.
My counseling approach is rooted in person-centered care, emphasizing collaboration, compassion, and respect for each individual’s unique journey. I draw from evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we work to build awareness, self-compassion, emotional regulation, and motivation for meaningful change. I aim to create a supportive and empowering environment where clients feel heard, valued, and equipped to move toward greater balance, growth, and well-being.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Supervisor with 20+ years of clinical experience working in a variety of settings with children, adolescents, and adults in mental health care and post acute neuro-cognitive rehabilitation; coaching and case management.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
