She works with a wide range of life issues including ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, and major life transitions. Additional focus areas include body image, caregiver stress, commitment and control issues, eating-related concerns, and feelings of isolation or jealousy.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to sort out feelings and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and habits keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and unhelpful behavior patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment needs to improve how people relate and feel connected when relationship pain or abandonment fears are present.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist work together to pick strategies that fit the issue, pace, and personal preferences.
Online sessions can be held by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for brief updates, journaling-style reflections, or people who prefer typed communication. These options make scheduling easier and let people receive consistent support from their home or workplace routines.
