Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello!
I’d like to say congratulations to you on taking the first step towards asking for a listening ear, receiving advice, or whatever other outcome you’re looking for by signing up for BetterHelp. I know it can be a vulnerable decision to make but I’m here and ready to help how I can. This entire process only works if I start by supporting you where you are at today.
My style is casual, warm, direct, and patient. I work primarily using a person-centered focus and approach which means you always come first and we focus on where you are at currently. If you aren’t ready to make life changes that feel big to you, that’s ok. We can take as long as you need through working together so you feel comfortable and confident. You might not want to share too much about yourself right away and that’s ok too. Part of having a person centered approach means I trust that you are the expert in what is best for you and I am simply here to help guide you towards the goals you are trying to achieve by fostering the strengths you already possess.
I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with my Master’s in Social Work in 2014 and have been practicing in the field ever since. I have my license in clinical social work (LICSW, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) which means I can practice in a clinical or non-clinical setting independently. My experience has been primarily working with the aging population and very often working with people who have depression and/or anxiety. I’ve worked with a wide variety of cultures and populations in my 6 years within the field. I love learning from the people I have the opportunity to work with and I value being a part of their support system.
I am comfortable interacting with you in whatever format you prefer: live chat, video, or phone calls. The majority of my availability to provide support and consultation will be on weekday evenings. If I sound like a good fit for you, I can’t wait to get to know you more! If not, that’s ok because you know exactly what kind of support you need and I know you will find the right match for you.

For many common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes – therapy delivered online can be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and practice have shown that remote sessions work well for these kinds of issues, offering meaningful support and tools people can use.
One of the main benefits of remote therapy is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to fit help into a busy schedule. This flexibility also helps people stay engaged when travel, work, or caregiving responsibilities make in-person visits difficult.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and many therapists work with clients across different formats. If someone decides they want a different fit, it is generally possible to switch therapists at any time. For many people, the convenience and accessibility of online therapy make it a practical and effective option for addressing emotional and mental health needs.
