Online Counseling
in Kitsap County
There are many reasons someone might choose online counseling. For some, it’s a temporary option; for others, it’s a long-term preference that fits their life best. Online sessions can offer accessibility, comfort, and flexibility—no matter the reason behind the choice.
Why Choose Online Counseling?
While most of my clients are within Kitsap, I can support clients from anywhere in Washington through online counseling.
Connect. Ask questions. Find the right fit.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation
Therapy is personal, and it’s important to feel comfortable with your therapist.
What to know:
-
I offer online therapy sessions through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform called Simple Practice. It’s designed specifically for mental health care, so everything is set up to make the process as smooth and confidential as possible.
-
Simple Practice also manages scheduling and billing, which means less to keep track of on your end. You’ll be able to complete intake forms, securely store payment information, and access your upcoming appointments all from your personal client portal.
-
When you book a session, you’ll receive automated email reminders with your video link, as well as any forms or documents you might need—all in one place. You can also reschedule or cancel through your client portal anytime.
-
Whether you’re at home, in a private office, or anywhere else you feel safe, online counselling offers flexibility without compromising the quality of connection and care. Many people find that it’s just as effective as in-person sessions—and sometimes even more convenient and accessible.
-
During our sessions, we’ll be able to see and hear each other clearly, just like in a face-to-face meeting. You can join from your computer, tablet, or phone—whatever feels most comfortable and accessible for you.
-
Confidentiality is just as important in online counselling as it is in person. I use a sound machine outside my private office to protect your privacy on my end. On your side, it’s best to choose a space where you feel safe and comfortable talking—ideally somewhere private, without other people in the room. Headphones can help too. Together, we’ll create a space that feels secure and supportive.

Is Online Counseling right for me?
At times, your counselor may recommend face-to-face sessions instead of online counselling.
In-Person Counseling might be best if:
Accessing certain specialized trauma therapies (ie, EMDR or OEI)
You're in acute distress and need in-person care to ensure your safety and well-being
You find digital communication challenging or uncomfortable
It’s important to share how online counselling feels for you throughout the process. Together, we can find the format that offers the right kind of care for your needs.
