I’m deeply interested in how early relationships, life experiences, and cultural backgrounds shape the way we see the world—and how they influence our choices, coping, leadership, and performance. For the past 20 years, I’ve worked in academic medical centers and hospitals (UCLA, CHLA), using research-based approaches to help individuals (children to older adults), couples, families, and leaders find agency, insight, personal growth, and positive change. My background spans health psychology, systems psychology, executive coaching, functional, rehab & CrossFit training — allowing me to bring a whole-person approach to the work.

Hello, nice to meet you via this page. Here's a bit about me. I have been a clinical therapist for over 10 years, but helping people for much longer than that. After working in foster care, I completed my college studies in psychology and social work. Helping in someone's healing journey is a privilege. Life can be really tough sometimes. Sometimes we have loads that we carry, beliefs and lessons we have learned along the way, some helpful and others not as much. I hope to help people of many multi-ethnic backgrounds, those who are open to healing, and recognize the importance of relationships, starting with self.

I consider it a profound honor to witness human beings' capacity to become more authentic, liberated versions of themselves. My experience is that healing and transformation take place only in relationship, and that the therapist-client relationship provides a unique opportunity for connection, reflection, and change. I help individuals and couples co-create a space where they can process the heavy burdens that seem to be getting in the way- grief or loss, low self-esteem, ambivalence about what is next, or pain from broken relationships.

Therapy is weird. It’s subjective and heady and brings up existential questions like: what even is therapy?! The short answer: therapy is whatever you want it to be. It’s your time to use how you want, whether that’s processing current life stressors, doing deeper trauma work, or just part of your self care routine. Often times it’s a mixture of all three. Non-linear.
I’m Basil. I’m a psychotherapist licensed in both NC & PA. Affirming and culturally informed individual and couples therapist. Overall I hold 18 years experience in Carework, and I’m in my 8th year of experience as a psychotherapist.

I believe that intuitive and deep listening as well as the relationship between therapist and client are the foundations for positive and successful experiences in therapy. I use a variety of techniques in helping clients reach their goals. You don't always have to know where you are going but you do need to be willing to go on a journey. I believe I can help identify the markers along the way.

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.
