Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

How about a conversation?
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been servicing the mental health profession for more than 25 years. I see counseling as a process in which you the client, and I, the Therapist as having come to understand and trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and work in a systematic fashion toward realizing those goals.

I approach counseling from a Cognitive-Behavioral perspective in that patterns of thought and action are explored in order to better understand the clients’ problems and develop solutions. I work with clients in a variety of formats, including individually and as families. I meet with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

Over the course of my career, I have developed a skill set directly relevant to providing direct clinical services to clients optimizing multi-modal therapies in conjunction with individual, couples, family, and group sessions. I have gained my experience by working in the following settings: residential treatment facilities, psychiatric hospitals, mental health rehabilitation agencies, and in the public and charter school systems.

My hope is to continue servicing the community. I would like to be the catalyst that assists with mending feelings and allowing individuals to cope with their truth.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether virtual therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or coping with life transitions, research and clinical experience indicate that online therapy can be as effective as traditional face-to-face sessions. A major benefit is the flexibility it offers – clients can choose the mode of connection that best fits their lives, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy schedules or other commitments. Licensed professionals provide these services, and if a client feels another therapist would be a better match, it is possible to change providers. For many people facing everyday mental health concerns, online therapy presents a convenient and effective option to explore.
