Her practice includes attention to women’s health and aging or geriatric matters when they affect an individual’s wellbeing.

She also has experience with HIV/AIDS related concerns and with those recovering from trauma and abuse. When appropriate she integrates coaching-oriented support for goal-setting alongside clinical care.

How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques typically include short-term problem-focused work and supportive clinical counseling. Problem-focused work helps people learn concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and cope with life changes. Supportive clinical counseling brings attention to grief, medical stressors, and relationship concerns in a practical, talk-based format.Finding the right method is something to do together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and daily demands and recommend approaches that match those needs. That process is collaborative and can change over time as goals shift or new issues emerge.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a weeknight or a short break at work, reduce travel time, and let people keep continuity of care when relocating. Phone sessions may be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. These practical benefits can help make therapy easier to work into everyday life.
