Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor in Wisconsin with over six years of experience helping families and individuals with their relationships, mental health, and addiction issues. I work with clients with addictions, anxiety, depression, parenting issues, grief, and overall life stress. I have a Trauma-informed Care Certificate from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and this gives me a unique perspective when interacting with clients.
My counseling style is compassionate, warm, and engaging. I believe in removing barriers to treatment, such as stigmatizing labels, and respecting each person’s unique strengths and goals. I start where the client is to help them navigate life’s successes and challenges. I combine motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and humanistic approaches to help clients live happier and more fulfilling lives. Our discussions will focus on the issues and topics that are relevant to you, and I will collaborate with you to meet your specific goals and needs.
I know that reaching out for help can be difficult, and change is never easy. If you are ready to begin the journey of living a happier and more fulfilling life, I am here to help you reach this goal.
I look forward to working with you!

Many people wonder whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major advantage is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that works best for them, choosing video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity of care.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they are seeking a different fit. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, practical path to working through everyday challenges and long-standing concerns with professional support.
