Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed professional counselor who has been working for the past 5 years in addictions and mental health. I have worked with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationship issues and more.
I take my approach to counseling from the client’s perspective. My approach is client centered, meaning I believe everyone has the ability to help themselves and will do so if given the opportunity. I also use cognitive behavior therapy when clients identify a barrier to their goals. I believe counseling is best begun in the present day-to-day life of the client and assist in helping them be who they want to be.
It is my favorite thing in the world to watch people learn and grow. I believe that everyone is capable of great change and that anyone can live a fulfilling life. I am happy to be a part of the process.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. People can connect with a therapist in the way that suits them best – via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to schedule sessions and maintain continuity of care amid busy routines.
Therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch therapists if they prefer a different fit. For many, online therapy provides a practical and effective way to access professional support for everyday mental health concerns.
