Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Welcome
I am a mental health counselor with more than 7 years experience working with individuals of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. My focus is to help you develop skills and strategies to address marriage and relationship issues, lifestyle challenges, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, addiction and addictive tendencies.
My counseling style is integrative and geared towards empowering each individual with self-discovery and self-correction skills. Integrative therapists don’t subscribe to any one therapeutic approach. Instead, they treat each client as an individual and pull from a variety of therapeutic approaches based on what the client seems to need in the therapy session.
We will look at different approaches to help you develop routines and useful strategies to strengthen your ability to implement and practice change in daily living. As in all counseling relationships a solid foundation is essential and at times necessary to explore, review and process underlying issues in order to learn how to rid oneself of emotional and psychological baggage, improve thinking and behavior patterns and become the expert in your life.
I am looking forward to our first session where we can collaborate on developing the skills to address areas of concerns and provide you with the support in achieving your goals. Things to expect during the initial visit are as follows; to work collaboratively towards development of a treatment plan, not necessarily during the first session but soon after. The treatment plan is a road map used as a guide and consists of goals, objectives and intervention. The length of the session is 45 minutes long, the goal of the session is to help you learn how to implement and practice coping and stress management skills in daily living via education, role-play, problem solving, communication and self-assessment strategies and homework.

For many common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions – online therapy has been demonstrated to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care. People seeking support for these issues often find virtual sessions an effective alternative.
One major advantage of online therapy is flexibility. Individuals can connect with therapists in the format that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – which can make it easier to fit treatment into a busy life.
All therapists providing online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they want a different fit. This accessibility and adaptability help many people engage in consistent, useful therapeutic work from wherever they are.
