I absolutely enjoy what I do and look forward to helping you manage
challenges that you may be experiencing, Modern society can be overwhelming and finding a supportive voice can be the thing that is needed to get you through those uncomfortable and hard times.
I help clients deal with stress and anxiety using the modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and Somatic Therapy. Stress lives in our nervous system, so a big part of my practice incorporates somatic breath work in addition to exploring how your thoughts influence your feelings and behavior. I also have experience working with self esteem and confidence issues.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
When I am not working I enjoy walking my dog in the park, practicing hot yoga and cooking.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – you can connect with a therapist in the format that best fits your life, whether that is through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to attend sessions consistently and integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if a different fit is needed you have the option to switch therapists. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible, practical way to get support for everyday mental health concerns while working with qualified clinicians.
