Maybe you've become so good at getting through the day that most people have no idea how much energy it takes. Your mind rarely slows down, your body never quite relaxes, and even when life looks "fine" on the outside, something still feels off. Whether you're carrying trauma, living with anxiety, grieving a loss, or making sense of a late ADHD or autism diagnosis, you deserve more than a place to vent. You deserve a therapist who is genuinely curious about your experience, willing to explore beneath the surface with you, and committed to helping therapy feel like somewhere you can finally let your guard down.

You may feel your mind is always racing, you are easily triggered, on edge, and overwhelmed. You may have concerns your emotions feel dysregulated or "shut down" when you feel stressed. Maybe you appear to be doing well on the outside, but inside you feel anxious, distracted, and burned out. You want tools that "actually" work.

When life gets overwhelming, it can feel like you are stuck, facing an endless cycle that you wish could change. Experiencing gridlock in your own life or in a relationship can be stressful, frustrating and lonely. Sometimes in the moment, it can seem easier to ignore/avoid the issues that are challenging you until you are faced with them again; and other times you can’t stop thinking about your challenges. It can also be difficult or painful to tolerate watching your loved ones struggle, or make decisions you think are not in their best interest. Over time these stressors can cause you to experience negative thoughts and feelings.

My ideal clients are young adults and professionals who seem “put together” but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain inside.

My approach to therapy often focuses on what gets in the way of (1) maintaining authentic social relationships and (2) managing complex feelings. Many people seem to struggle with being fully known by others, which often starts with more fully knowing yourself.
I use a socioculturally and emotionally attuned frame to help people gain insight into how their past has impacted their current struggles. Specifically, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, OCD, relationship concerns, grief/loss, family of origin/attachment issues, life transitions, and cultural identity development.

Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware people who often find themselves carrying more than others realize. On the outside, they may seem capable and put together, but internally they’re navigating anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, relationship challenges, or major life transitions. Some are feeling stuck in familiar patterns, while others are longing to better understand themselves and create a life that feels more authentic and meaningful. Together, we explore what’s beneath the surface, develop practical tools for navigating life’s challenges, and cultivate a more compassionate relationship with all parts of themselves.

Losing a loved one can be the most difficult time in your life. Emotions are often surprising in their strength or mildness. Grief often breaks a person completely from the inside out. Grieving is hard work; you can get worn out and feel battered. It can take a lot longer to work through grief than most people realize. People around you may think it’s helpful for you to not talk or cry or focus on your loss but actually, this is just what people need to do. The goal is to not stay stuck, to move through it—and this is part of the process. Find wholeness through trauma informed talk therapy, yoga, mindfulness.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who may look like they are managing on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain underneath. You may be struggling with self-esteem, relationships, identity, a major life transition, or questions about who you are and who you want to become. Maybe you find yourself overthinking, repeating patterns you want to change, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Together, we can slow things down, make sense of what you are experiencing, and explore what has shaped you while helping you build a life and relationships that feel more authentic and fulfilling.

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.
