I work with teens, adults, parents, veterans, and law enforcement who are tired of pretending, trying to survive, and holding it together alone. Many of my clients have been struggling for years, been in higher levels of care, and have tried therapy that didn't go deep enough. I specialize in trauma, self-harm, parent/ family support and dissociative disorders. I have a particular heart for those whose lives have demanded or taken things that most people only hear about. Whatever you have survived in silence, watched your teen suffer through, brought home from the line of duty, or buried so deep it feels forgotten. I can handle it.

The connection between therapist and client, known as the therapeutic alliance, is one of the most important factors in healing and growth.

Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, mood and mental health concerns, or healing from trauma, I am here to walk alongside you with compassion and trust.

If you're the one everyone counts on, the job, the relationships, the mental load, you know what it's like to run on empty. You snap at people you love, then feel guilty after. You say yes when you mean no, because no feels selfish. Rest feels like something you have to earn, and slowing down makes you anxious instead of calm.
You don't need to hit a breaking point to deserve support. You just need to be done white knuckling it alone.
I work with women who are ready to figure out what's actually driving the anxiety, not just manage it, and build boundaries that actually hold.

Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Luna, they/them. I also go by Loon. I’m passionate about walking alongside kids, teens, and adults who are experiencing grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm.

Hello! I'm so glad you're here. My particular interest is helping individuals and couples strengthen their connections. I think the most important things in our lives are our relationships.

You may be here because something in your life no longer works. Anxiety has taken over. A relationship is unraveling. Grief, trauma, illness or fear has narrowed your world. Or perhaps you are high-functioning on the outside , yet privately exhaused, stuck or quietly suffering.

My goal is to help the client obtain their goals of normal daily functioning. My ideal client is brought into therapy and focused on utilizing the tools given in therapy to apply to daily life. A client must want change and be willing to put in the work to obtain it. I am interested in clients who are motivated and engaged to do more.

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.
