Do you find yourself struggling through one of life's many changes? Heraclitus, a Greek philosopher, has been quoted as saying “change is the only constant in life.” Many of us have a love-hate relationship with change, as transitions can bring some of the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Whether you are going through changes in your relationships, career, stage of life or just feel stuck and need a change, I am here to help you on your journey.

Maybe you're very clear about what you want to work on, maybe you're just not feeling like your best self and don't even know why.

Life can be stressful. The demands we, as well as others, place upon us can steal our peace and happiness and leave us feeling overwhelmed. Often, we struggle to achieve some sense of balance while simultaneously feeling confused and discouraged. Anxiety, depression and trauma can affect every aspect of our lives – relationships, family life, work, schooling, even self-care and physical well-being. Therapy offers a time away from daily life and provides a comfortable place to reflect and regain a healthy perspective for living life fully.

You are struggling with a negative self-concept coexisting with a high level of anxiety that is more likely the result of irrational negative thoughts. The issues present interfere with daily functioning and pleasurable activities. For example, despite regular positive feedback, you might feel defective because of a single benign criticism, which causes overwhelming anxiety at the thought of being exposed. Engaging with others becomes a daily struggle. You might need help changing your thoughts and feelings about yourself, enhancing self-esteem, and building self-confidence to improve your quality of life.

I believe that therapy is for everyone! So often we minimize our struggles by comparing them to those faced by others when we all deserve the opportunity to work through our challenges so we can live the best version of our own lives. I work hard to provide a safe, judgement free atmosphere that promotes healing and personal growth. Life is unpredictable and having someone to help us rise though the hard parts can make all the difference in achieving the wellness we desire.

Are you finally ready to see change within yourself or your child? I believe the biggest obstacle to change is setting too high standards, leading to disappointment and remaining in unhealthy patterns. In our sessions, I aim to point out these patterns, provide suggestions/techniques, and be a constant voice of support. Whether I am working with a child, teen, or adult I prioritize ways to make the sessions engaging and meet the client where they are on that specific day. Change rarely happens overnight but with me as your counselor, let's start celebrating our small wins. Tomorrow doesn't have to look the same.

I believe the role of a therapist is to offer unconditional acceptance and walk alongside each client as they work through their issues. There are many different tools to help each client achieve their goals. Setting up a treatment plan with attainable goals with clear direction is essential in the counseling process. Each client comes with their own belief system. I am committed to helping clients find the inner peace that comes through relationships with people and a higher power. I am trained in biblical principles and a Christian, but I am committed to helping each person find their own path and their own beliefs.

Online Therapists

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?

One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.

Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?

Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.

Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?

The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
