Hello, I applaud your willingness to seek out counseling today! My collision with the profession of counseling began with personal counseling 25 years ago as a teenager experiencing grief. Since graduate school, I have dedicated my time and talents to the field of counseling through practice and primarily professorship. Currently, I am coming full circle and returning to my roots to not only develop counselors-in-training at the university level but provide client-centered psychotherapy.

Life can hand us unforeseen experiences. Loss, death, or illness. Relationship challenges or disappointments. Seemingly unmanageable anxiety or depression. Work-related problems. Traumatic events or abuse. How do we cope with the effects upon our thoughts, feelings, and behavior? How do we get back to thriving again? I offer you an opportunity to encounter such issues together. You can confront painful or confusing emotions, thoughts, or circumstances knowing you're not alone. I hope to help you discover strengths within yourself and learn additional skills that facilitate your own ability to heal, recover, and restore the hurting places in your mind, emotions, relationships, and life.

Living in current times can be stressful and overwhelming. In addition, past life experiences such as childhood trauma, difficult relationships, family dynamics and loss, can make our day-to-day lives even harder to handle. I specialize in working with clients through a systemic lens (family, culture, relationships and how they affect the foundations of mental health and identity), and through a trauma-informed lens (how traumatic life events contribute to our ability to cope, how we feel in our bodies, connection in relationships, difficulty being with certain emotions, and struggling with self-acceptance)

Sometimes life takes unexpected turns and we need support discovering our path forward. Often, we know something isn't right in our life but we aren't exactly sure what we want to change or how to more forward. Do you feel overwhelmed by change or dismantling a previous belief system and understanding of yourself? Are family expectations and differences impacting your life? Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, family discord, or substance use? Are the expectations of yourself and others feeling restrictive and weighing you down? Healing and growth are possible!

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.
