Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are you feeling out of control of your life? Do you feel like you want to escape from everything? Life has a way of doing this sometimes. Anxiety, depression and other mental health conditions can significantly impact our ability to manage day to day life. It can affect our relationships with the people we love most. Sometimes, no matter what we do to make things better it can feel like there's no relief. Having the right support, developing skills to effectively handle stressors and learning ways to stay anchored can help you begin to take steps in the direction you have been trying to go.

You struggle with intense emotions and feel stuck in your life. You feel irritable, down, worried, or numb more days than not. You may lash out at others or yourself. Old coping strategies no longer work. It’s difficult to imagine life improving - for you to do anything other than tolerate your symptoms. The clients I work with have experienced trauma of all kinds, including childhood sexual abuse, betrayal, sexual assault, incest, combat trauma, racism, ableism, homophobia, physical and emotional abuse, and dysfunctional families.

I enjoy helping adults and teens live happier, more relaxed, and more fulfilling lives. I am respectful of my client's time. I frequently check in to make sure that their sessions are helpful, and that we are focusing on what they want to. When people are feeling anxious, depressed, or angry, often the problem is their stress level and lack of a support system. I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 25 years, but I just became licensed in New York State (I am also licensed in MD), and I am accepting new clients.

Do you feel like you are constantly triggered by "ordinary life"? Panic attacks? Insomnia? Destructive behaviors? Mood swings? Substance abuse or eating disorders? Hypervigilance or mistrust? Loss of memory? Feelings of worthlessness or shame? Loss of sense of self? Feeling numb or detaching from relationships? Do you wish you could "change the channel" in your mind? Maybe you have been in a holding pattern of "bad or abusive" relationships and are seeking ways to recognize red flags and break patterns of codependency.

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.

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.
What type of therapist is right for me?
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.
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 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.
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.
