Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I offer a direct, active, goal-oriented approach in helping you find relief from the anxiety, anger, depression, shame, or whatever it is that leaves you feeling stuck. By taking a look at 1) What are you trying to achieve? 2) What are you trying to preserve? 3) What are you trying to avoid? and 4) What are you trying to eliminate? we can highlight the sometimes-complex interaction among your thoughts, decisions, actions and outcomes. Knowing yourself, making use of your personal strengths & your tools at hand while allowing your values guide you, you can propel yourself toward becoming the best, most fulfilled version of yourself.
I use a combination of evidence-based treatments tailored to suit your strengths to overcome your core fears and reach your goals. These include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which can help with different kinds of problems and degrees of suffering. I don’t want you in therapy forever. I want you to reach your goals, and live your life to the fullest.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be similarly effective to traditional in-person sessions for most cases.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether that means video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to incorporate therapy into a busy life.
Each therapist available through online services is a licensed professional, and if someone prefers a different therapeutic fit they can choose to switch therapists. Online therapy can provide accessible, practical support for many everyday mental health concerns while offering options that match individual needs and routines.
