I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in working with adults with substance abuse and mental illness. I enjoy being able to work collaboratively with my clients in exploring various areas in which they hope to improve their overall functioning while providing them with a warm and welcoming environment to be themselves throughout the therapeutic process. I believe in meeting each individual client where they are at to ensure a safe and comfortable space to explore areas of their lives that they have not had the opportunity to.

Twenty-five years into it, I still love being a counselor and psychotherapist. It is an honor and a privilege to be involved in the personal struggle and transformation of each client, couple, and family I see. I regard therapy more as an art than a science, though I certainly utilize current research in my practice. Most often my clients present problems in living rather than "mental illness" per se and they appreciate my attention to their strengths, resources, and spiritual concerns.

I believe that therapy is less like an onion and more like a garlic clove. Instead of trying to peel back the layers, we learn to understand, integrate, and balance all of the pieces that make us who we are. Whatever path life has taken you down, I'm here to listen and reassure you that you are not alone. Healing looks different for everyone. Through my background in mental health nursing, I approach counseling by integrating professional experience with a deep understanding of mental health utilizing a variety of theoretical lenses and interventions to individuals, couples, parents, and families.

Hi! I am so glad you’ve decided to put yourself and your needs first. Finding a therapist is not always easy, however, it is so important to have a safe space to heal. Moving through life carrying around unresolved feelings can weigh us down. Life can often have unexpected moments, thrusting you into a situation you may have never encountered and leaving you unsure of how to manage. While I don’t have all of the answers, I specialize in providing guidance to those who have faced profound life struggles and might be grappling with a sense of hopelessness or just feeling stuck.

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try, you can't quite find your place in the world? You may feel a constant sense of being misunderstood or disconnected, even when you're doing everything you think you should. This can lead to feelings of overwhelm, confusion, or a sense that something is missing. Many of us have adapted over time, building walls or behaviors that used to keep us safe but now seem to hold us back. If you’re searching for clarity, connection, and a deeper understanding of yourself, you're not alone.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
