Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Certified Biblical Counselor. I have a passion to help individuals and couples find their way to wholeness and good mental health. I have over 12 years of experience working in the mental health industry. I earned a Master of Arts Degree in Counseling Psychology.
There comes a time in everyone’s life when they really need someone safe to talk to. They need someone who will not use their pain against them. So often they end up holding that pain inside, masking it with a smile or adherent behavior. I can provide a safe place for you to empty your pain and take off the mask, help you clean up your garden of life so that your quality of life can improve.
Every client needs something different; I use various evidence-based approaches that will fit my client’s needs. I am skilled in cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, mindfulness, solution focused therapy, narrative therapy, positive therapy, and biblical counseling. I will utilize my skills to treat and support clients with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, family conflict, and grief. I also help clients who are experiencing challenging interpersonal relationships, shame, and guilt by improving communication skills, setting boundaries, and understanding the power of “no”. I walk with my clients through the gardens of their lives and help them identify any unwanted weeds and uproot them, so that they can regain their voice and move forward.
I enjoy working with adults, couples to help them resolve their issues through a client centered approach offering empathy and a non-judgmental environment to support clients in establishing their goals so that they can identify and develop their inner strengths.
If you are ready to do the work, I am ready to support you to be the person you desire to be. I’m looking forward to working with you.

Many people ask whether online therapy can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or transitions in life, remote therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect with therapists in the format that fits their lives best, whether that is a video appointment, a phone call, live chat, or messaging. This variety makes it easier to fit care into a busy schedule and to stay consistent with sessions.
All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and if a client ever wants a different match they can switch therapists. For many people, the combination of demonstrated effectiveness and flexible access makes online therapy a practical option for addressing everyday mental health concerns.
