Therapy provides a connection and opportunity to grow and change within challenging circumstances. My clients experience(d) abuse, neglect, or oppression; grieve unbearable loss; seek to modulate anger or battle low self-esteem; question religious/spiritual/political values; navigate conflict; express themselves creatively; integrate a transformative event (e.g. plant medicine); and unlearn their gender or racial conditioning. You can correct course from historical patterns. Men, families, highly sensitive people, exvangelicals, and relatives of someone with a personality disorder are among clients I have worked well with.

If eating disorders, like binge eating, excessive dieting, or worrying about food, weight & shape feel like they have taken over your life, I can help you regain a sense of balance, control and peace. There are many unhealthy messages about how our bodies "should" look or what we "should" or "shouldn't" eat. It is my goal to help guide you back to the inner wisdom of your own body, so that eating begins to feel like a nourishing, and even joyful, experience. In addition to therapy for eating disorders, I also work with bariatric surgery patients, and clients who need help with anxiety, depression, stress, or life transitions.

I view therapy as a collaborative, unfolding process. My approach is focused on providing a secure space to develop a trusting, authentic therapeutic relationship based on empathy, support, and connection. As a therapist my goal is to help you move towards healing and growth.

I meet with all of my clients over video-chat which allows me to reach individuals who lead busy lives, live in rural areas or other countries, have barriers to making in-person appointments, or simply prefer being in their own space. I believe that accessing mental health care should be feel safe, easy, and comfortable! My practice is grounded in the notion that you don't have to feel stressed out to be successful.

If you feel like you're drowning or barely keeping above water - here is your sign, your life raft, that you will catch your breath, you will make it through this! Life is challenging, there's no denying that, but sometimes we need to lean on someone or accept that offer from a friend who wants to help us. It's okay to need help. It's okay to say "I'm struggling". There is NO shame in acknowledging we can't (and shouldn't) do it all. So if you're hoping to find that moment of relief during this stage in life, I am here to offer you that support, validation and empowerment. You can do this.

I believe people have within themselves the ability to make positive changes in their lives. I provide a comfortable, supportive atmosphere and build a trusting relationship that allows people to explore personal struggles, honestly address issues, build a new sense of autonomy and encourages constructive life choices. The skills and knowledge learned in therapy empower my clients to manage stressful life events, improve their relationships, and foster self- esteem. Some of the treatment modalities may include cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, solution focused therapy, play therapy, narrative therapy, family-systems theory, psychosocial education, skills training, parent training and client-centered approaches.

You're looking for marriage counseling because you're concerned about communication and conflict. You may even be considering divorce. Do emotions escalate during disagreements, making it difficult to have a productive conversation? Do one or both of you feel criticized and defensive? You’ve tried talking the issues out in a calm way, explaining yourself, and sticking to the facts. Yet you still can’t seem to arrive at the real root of the problem. Problems go unresolved for months or years, and you may be left feeling hopeless.

The greatest joy comes when clients break free of painful patterns and move to feeling comfortable with life. I've been a counselor for 25 years, with extensive experience helping those struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and addictions. Getting at underlying issues of shame, loss of control and grief changes lives. When therapy works there's more than just insight; clients feel it in their heart as well as their head. Those around them see that they have a life worth living with more happiness and better handling of the inevitable potholes.

Therapy can offer hope in the midst of depression, anxiety, trauma, stressful challenges in work, relationships, health, or other arenas of life. It can also help us respond thoughtfully and creatively rather than anxiously or destructively. I am a firm believer in learning to be open towards yourself, your relationships, and life transitions. This is a more powerful motivator than mentally beating yourself up. We'll work together to identify strengths you can use towards making important life changes, and to build coping skills to deal with difficult emotions, trust, relationship issues, and negative thoughts you might have about yourself.

As a family therapist, I believe that each family, couple and individual has the ability to heal using their own internal strengths. My focus is on restoring balance and building communication within families as they are integral in increasing the overall well-being of individuals, couples and families. I identify symptoms such as marital discord, addiction, behavioral issues among children and adolescents, mental and medical health issues as becoming an unhelpful part of the family system. My approach to reduce the impact of these symptoms and break harmful patterns is collaborative, encouraging members to be open and honest throughout the progression of therapy.

Currently Accepting New Clients! I have always been fascinated with life’s “big” questions: What gives our life meaning and purpose? How do we live this life to the fullest extent? How do we best manage and live with the suffering and hardship that can arise? These questions and my own personal lived experiences and hardships led me to the field of counseling. What I appreciate most about counseling is that it is an exercise in reminding us about our strengths and resilience, our gifts and talents, our intrinsic value as unique human beings and that that we are not alone in our struggles.

My intention for you is to gently but dynamically create opportunities for growth and healing through flexible and creative alternatives to break through old patterns. I like to collaborate with motivated clients who are willing to work to change their lives. My goal is to help you discover your own solutions to your problems and concerns in an environment that is welcoming, empathetic and non-judgmental. I do that by carefully attending to your thoughts and feelings. Although I will offer specific "interventions" I believe that change occurs during therapy when there is strong motivation combined with the quality of our connection.

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.
