I have provided therapy to children, adolescents, adults and families. I have expertise in depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships and parenting issues.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

For many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or adjusting to life changes, online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and practice both indicate that remote care works well for a wide range of everyday mental health needs.

A major benefit of online therapy is flexibility. Clients can connect with their therapist in the format that best suits them – video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to fit care into busy lives and different schedules.

Therapists offering remote services are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch providers if they want a different fit. Online therapy can therefore be a convenient, accessible option for those seeking support without changing the standards of professional care.
