Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello, let me introduce myself.
I have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 2018, and I have licenses in Tennessee and California.
My therapy style would be described as warm, with acceptance and understanding. Treating all clients with the respect, compassion, empathy, and positive regard. Incorporating a clients life experiences, personal beliefs and values, and their perspective into treatment and assisting in building insight and skills to handle any concern or opportunity.
My theoretical orientation would be described as eclectic (leaning on Cognitive behavioral therapy, but also incorporating solution focused therapy, psychodynamic, narrative, existential, structural family therapy, to name a few.) because I believe that there are benefits from having the ability to offer different techniques that work for my client’s needs.
I have worked with clients with a wide range of individual concerns and opportunities. Which I feel make me uniquely suited to help with depression, anxiety, dual diagnosis, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, life, and career transitions. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse move forward in their lives by reshaping certain patterns of interaction into healthier ones.
I look forward to working with you!

For many people facing common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or major life changes – online therapy can be an effective option. Research and clinical experience indicate that for these types of issues, remote therapy can achieve outcomes comparable to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a licensed professional in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they decide a different fit would be more helpful. Overall, online therapy offers an accessible, adaptable way to pursue support for a wide range of emotional and relational concerns.
