Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and aimed at helping people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and build healthier routines. She uses a mix of approaches depending on the issue and the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try different responses.

She works with concerns such as grief, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, domestic violence, substance use, immigration issues, HIV/AIDS, and post-traumatic stress.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where motivation and meaning matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. It is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the person’s own goals so the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports self-direction.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean combining ACT, CBT, and client-centered strategies or trying one method for a few sessions to see how it feels.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Video sessions mirror face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
