So many people struggle to find happiness and balance in their lives and relationships. I can help you identify and remove the blocks to your happiness, whether they be inside of you (your thoughts, expectations and anxieties) or outside (toxic relationships, cultural barriers, etc.). I can also help you address and face the fears which hold you back, identify relationship patterns which keep you from getting what you want in love, and help you think outside the box to create novel solutions to your struggles.

Available now, in-person. Perhaps everything seems fine on the outside to others…you are able to do what you need to do (most days), but on the inside you feel overwhelmed and tired? Some days you don’t even know what’s wrong, it may seem like a lot of little things, and there may be so many opinions inside your head that you can’t even hear your own anymore. Do you wish that you knew how to listen to yourself and trust what you hear?

My approach blends practical strategies with deep listening to help manage symptoms, rebuild trust, and guide you toward a more grounded, meaningful, and connected life. You don’t have to do it alone.

Disappointment, anxiety, depression, grief, fear, and uncertainty can feel like aimless wandering. Discovering a path forward built on relationship connection, coping skills, and trust for self, can bring you to your goals and on a journey towards hope. Counseling can help you repurpose pain and disappointment to discover more of your true self. In counseling we focus on attachments and relationships, the stories you tell yourself, and emotional regulation. I employ a belief that the unique life stories that each individual carries are best navigated within the safety of relational connection. We are not made to navigate life alone.

I am a Licensed Psychologist originally from the Blue Ridge Mountains in rural Appalachia. Witnessing the impact of poverty, generational trauma, and substance use in my community influenced my desire to pursue a career in clinical psychology. My hometown – like much of rural Appalachia – was the target of pharmaceutical companies and opioid distribution in the 90s, better known as the opioid epidemic today. Given my upbringing in a close-knit town, I value relationships and community above all else and prioritize authenticity, humor, and warmth in the therapy room.

I provide therapy for children and people who are parents/caregivers. This is because I love families- messy, complex, divorced, harmonious, blended- and love helping them thrive, whether I’m working with its younger or older members! My child and adult clients tend to struggle with worries that stick around: worrying about if they're good enough, worrying about specific stressors (phobias like shots/germs, divorce, grief), worrying about pleasing others, and more. They might have difficulty maintaining relationships, feel "stuck", are sleeping less well, or have traumatic memories that are hard to make sense of. Therapy can help!

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.
