Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 17 years of experience working as a therapist in personal, couple, family, and group settings. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, abuse, grief, addiction, PTSD, personality disorders, toxic personalities. co-occurring disorders, codependency, and veterans issues.
My approach is client-centered (based on your needs and wants), compassionate, encouraging, and respectful (some appropriate humor may slip in occasionally). My approach draws on modalities of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused, motivational, dialectical behavioral therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. Your treatment will be unique to you based on our joint treatment planning, your preferences, and your goals for treatment.
Life is dynamic, exciting, and often unpredictable. It can also be challenging, complex, and at times overwhelming. Your choice to invest in yourself shows a willingness to take more control of your life. With treatment, your ability to address issues of the past, manage the demands of the present, and prepare for the future will increase. Peace of mind, clarity, and purpose can and will improve. I look forward to working with you in this undertaking.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy makes a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or managing life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that suits them best, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity of care.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and if a different fit is desired a client may switch therapists at any time. For many people, remote therapy offers a convenient and effective option for addressing common mental health and life challenges.
