Many of us find ourselves stuck in the same patterns that seem to replay over and over again in our relationships. We have the same arguments or turn to the same habits time after time. Others may be looking to increase the intimacy and connection in our relationships. Many of the clients and couples I work with are ready to break out of this cycle and find healing for themselves and their relationships. As a Level 1 IFS therapist, I believe that addressing the pain and hurt behind these patterns, cycles, and habits will create the most transformative changes in your life.

Hello and welcome to Inner Light Counseling Services. I strive to provide a compassionate and safe space for individuals who feel deeply, think uniquely, and are shaped by experiences of trauma and/or neurodivergence. I am passionate about assisting folks in gently and safely uncovering their truest, most joy-filled ways of being. These are reasons to be alive. Often, these parts get buried under layers of anxiety, depression, shame, and other self-protective patterns. These have likely helped you to survive. They tell an important story. We honor this story. But it is not who you are. Let's gently come to honor YOU.

We all have suffering in our lives-- it's part of human experience. Too often, however, there is a layer of unnecessary psychological pain caused by unconscious defenses. We often resist painful feelings and the realities they point to. When this happens chronically we can get stuck in our resistance, becoming emotionally and physically sick. So our suffering increases. I work together with patients to build and/or embrace their capacity to honestly and compassionately face, untangle, and accept truths they can no longer resist.

I focus on individual Trauma, Couples, and Family. With years of family and individual work I've developed a flexible ability to meet adult and teen needs from parenting, marital, and developmental trauma and transitions of life.

To assist my clients with underlying issues of trauma, my training in AEDP, EMDR and somatic approaches are well suited.

You might be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that don’t really fit who you are anymore. Maybe your emotions feel like a lot to manage, or past experiences still sit with you in a way that’s hard to shake.

You may be navigating ADHD, anxiety, or autism, whether diagnosed or just wondering if that fits your experience. You’re not just looking for temporary relief, you want real change. You want to understand what’s actually going on under the surface and figure out how to handle things in a way that actually works well.

I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma/PTSD, anxiety, and challenges related to sex and intimacy.

I offer an affirming, sex-positive approach and am LGBTQIA+ affirming, poly-aware, and kink/BDSM-aware. My work is grounded in evidence-based practices, with a commitment to ongoing learning so care stays responsive, relevant, and ethically sound.

Have you ever driven a fully-loaded 15-passenger van? As drivers in that situation, when we look in the rearview mirror, the only thing we can see is the passengers. We can't see outside. The side-view mirror offers minimal help. We have a HUGE blindspot. If we are in the left lane of the interstate and want to move to the right, the best thing to do is ask the "shotgun" rider to check. A counselor functions much like that: helping us check our blindspots.

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.
