Navigating the internet, immersing in anime, or diving into the gaming community can create both coping skills and stress within ourselves.

As a telehealth provider, I aim to have services be just as beneficial and fulfilling as in-person services.

It's not easy to look for a therapist. I talk to many nervous people who question if counseling and therapy work. They usually leave my office relaxed, sometimes laughing, most importantly hopeful.

I invite you to be your "uncensored self" because only when we accept who we are; are we open to change.

Are you currently experiencing challenges in your life? We all have them, and some we are faced with can feel pretty big, and we don't have to face them alone. When these challenges prevent you from functioning in important areas of your life, and leave you feeling as life is just passing you by, reaching out for help is one of the most courageous things you can do. Much of my experience is working with adolescents, families, and individuals, who experience everything from relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and stress, to name a few. I have worked in Outpatient community settings, schools, homes, and telehealth.

Difficulties in life can often result in unfulfilling/unhelpful circumstances or patterns of thoughts and behaviors. It is during these times, the times when you just feel "stuck," that gaining an understanding of the issue(s) at hand while enhancing life skills can increase your resilience. As a therapist, I work to empower my clients and facilitate conversations that help them gain a deeper understanding of their past, present or future concerns while exploring effective ways to foster lasting growth, healing and wellness.

As parents, many of us suffer from loneliness and disconnection - from ourselves and our communities. It seems nobody can understand our obsession with sleep schedules, our worries about how we feed our babies or our approach to how we discipline our kids on the playground. Our decisions might draw negative comments and judgement - sometimes even from our loved ones. So, it seems easier to put yourself on the back burner or to do all things yourself so you don't have to ruffle feathers. But, tending to your needs without judgement and caring for yourself is integral to creating and sustaining a healthy, joyful family system.
