Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Life is so hard isn’t it? It can often bring unexpected pain and suffering. Sometimes just having one person to reach out to makes all the difference. It takes an extraordinarily strong person to even acknowledge that counseling may be helpful, so just know that you are already taking the right steps to a better, more fulfilled life. I hope that everyone here finds what they are looking for in a counselor, so you can live up to your full potential. It is normal to feel lost sometimes, especially in 2020. People in our lives both personally and professionally are all in different places and sometimes an outside positive perspective is all we need to move forward. I am so happy to be that person for you.

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life changes – online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person counseling. Research and practice have shown that these issues often respond well to remote therapy when conducted by qualified professionals.
One of the main advantages of remote care is flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that fits their needs and schedule – video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to incorporate therapy into a busy life.
Online therapy also allows people to try different therapists until they find the right fit. All providers involved are licensed professionals, and clients are free to switch therapists if they seek a different style or approach.
Overall, online therapy offers an accessible, adaptable way to work on many common mental health and relationship concerns while keeping the same therapeutic goals as face-to-face work.
