Take a moment and visualize your life as a garden, influenced by various individuals and experiences that have shaped its landscape. You may notice aspects of your garden that no longer align with your desires—a tangle of vines choking your flowers or plants that no longer serve you. Maybe you have yearning to create a garden that truly reflects who you are and are unsure of what you want to grow. Some sections of your garden are thriving and others aren't. Whether there is that type of knowing or its processing an adverse event(s), you have an awareness that your "garden" isn't as full as you want it to be.

Taking this first step of searching through profiles on Psychology Today demonstrates a certain level of commitment to improve the quality of your mental health. And it can also be quite overwhelming sifting through all the options (hello decision fatigue). Collectively we're all dealing with so much right now as human beings on this planet. The mental health epidemic that existed prior to 2020 has only been further exacerbated as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Whether navigating stressors of day-to-day life, or experiencing a more acute crisis, therapy can be an excellent source of support, healing and empowerment.

You're tired of being "strong." Your old ways of coping no longer work, and your "symptoms" keep recurring despite your best efforts. Maybe you have recurring or chronic depression or anxiety, or are grieving a loss. You might be struggling with your creativity, or with your identity. You may suspect that your current struggles are rooted in childhood trauma, and yet, this insight hasn't led to much change... But what if it were true that the source of your suffering is also the key to positive, lasting transformation? I believe that it is, and I am honored to provide a safe space for you to heal, and to get to know your true self.

You've made it this far. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, and your Instagram algorithm is a steady stream of tips, perspective changers, and eye openers. Except it still feels like something is missing. I'm a family systems therapist, focusing on the parent-child relationship. All my clients look different; some are here to parent others, to be parented, or to re-parent themselves. But they all have one thing in common: they are ready to dig deeper.

I love the opportunity to walk beside my clients as they work through this journey of healing and restoration. I love getting to hold both the beauty and pain of life with someone until they are ready and able to hold it all on their own. Getting to encourage them as they move towards their feelings, work through their pain, and emerge into life that is full, embodied, and reawakened. The clients I work with have a wide array of life experience, and often the reason that brought them in for counseling leads to something else.

My background makes me a great fit for people with anxiety, going through a transition, and those who are looking to actively work towards feeling better. I specialize in working with people on any point of the transition to parenthood. My childproofed office is a great space for new parents to process and move forward with becoming parents. I would also be a great option for anyone looking to address any mental health concerns from a family therapy perspective. Using a family therapy perspective can help clients who want a more dynamic experience that reflects and addresses healing and growth in the complex context of our lives.

During therapy consultations, most people say that they want a therapist who won't just sit there and nod at them. That makes a lot of sense to me. Starting with a new therapist takes a lot of courage and most of us wouldn't do it unless we need real help. Most hurt and trauma happens in our relationships with others and in order for therapy to help you need to be able to trust that your therapist is with you. When.you talk with me, you have my full attention. We'll make connections between what's happening now and what happened in your past experiences.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

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.

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.
