Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed professional counselor with 22 years of experience across a wide range of domains – career, education, mental health, relationship/family work. I have a particular passion for helping clients to manage stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma symptoms that negatively impact their functioning in their relationships or careers.
My style is warm, supportive, and light-hearted in general, but I can be intense and emotive when helping clients process through negative experiences and feelings. I don’t believe in telling clients what to do, but I do believe in collaboratively exploring problems and designing solutions together rather than spending valuable time talking about things but not doing anything about them. Your time is precious to me, so I strive to ensure that our time together is productive and helpful.
The primary modalities I use are cognitive behavior therapy, but I pull from structural and strategic family therapy concepts and techniques to help improve client relationships as well.

Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, research and clinical experience indicate that online therapy is comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that fits their schedules and comfort level – via video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to keep therapy consistent and to fit appointments into busy lives.
All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients are free to change therapists if they want a different fit. For many people, the combination of proven effectiveness and greater convenience makes online therapy a practical option to consider.
