Seeking help from others can be very challenging, and in my experience, it is those that seek help that express the utmost courage. As a therapist, most of my experience has been centered around helping children and their families, many of whom have viewed therapy as a last resort. As a therapist, my mission is to help my clients heal and recover from things like depression, anxiety, or trauma in a way that is central to who they are. I utilize both art and play therapy to help understand my clients in expressive ways. I also utilize psychodynamic therapy to gain a bigger perspective of my clients’ past, present and futures.

The world we live in is an ever changing and fast paced place that can often times add complexities to our lives, our relationships, our internal thoughts and emotions that we didn’t anticipate or were not ready for. In these times it can be helpful to seek therapy to have someone support your growth into the person you want to be in a respectful, empathetic, and judgment-free environment.

You're someone who is looking to find just the right fit in a counselor. Maybe you are experiencing grief, or having difficulty adjusting to life changes. Perhaps you have a general sense of dissatisfaction with life, or have specific things you want to work through. Or, maybe you're feeling trapped by anxiety, or past trauma, and you want to feel a sense of hope; to be seen, heard, and understood. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy, and the things you may want to work on are important and unique.

You're deeply worthy, just as you are. Trauma, loss, and systems of oppression can create a sense of disconnection from that truth. If this is part of your experience and you're feeling lost, stuck, or hopeless, know this: the way you feel right now is valid AND your story doesn't stop there. You can reclaim your next chapter and all the rest. This journey may not be linear, and that's okay - you don't have to travel it alone. A good therapist can offer a safe, empathetic space to help you understand your past in a more compassionate way, skillfully notice and shift patterns, and embrace the inner resources you've had all along.

My ideal clients are individuals (ages 10 and up) who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, or depression and honestly, they’re just tired of feeling like a hot mess express. Maybe their brain’s doing acrobatics when they’re trying to focus, or they’re stuck in an endless loop of overthinking everything from text messages to life decisions, or maybe they just feel blah and don’t really know why. They’re not looking for a magic fix, but they are craving real tools, honest conversations, and a space where they don’t have to pretend everything’s fine. They want to feel more in control of their thoughts and more grounded in life.

To say that life is hard is an understatement; what a time to be alive and to be human! Life has an interesting way of "just" happening when we least expect it. Everyone has a story or a burden to bear, some heavier than others. Regardless, seeking a therapist midst those things can add another layer of hardness or stress. My goal as your therapist is to help you find healing. Whether I am the right fit or not, you will leave our consultation one or two ways; ready to dive in together and do the work or help with finding the right therapist.

Those from the BIPOC, LGBTQIA2+, polyamory, kink/BDSM/fetish, sex positive, first responder, and sex work communities and those in the perinatal period are especially welcome here. I offer services in Spanish as well.

As a Native American and spouse of an Army veteran I am dedicated to providing compassionate, culturally appropriate, and professional care to my clients. When it comes to counseling I want to figure out what it is that the individual is needing or wanting and then work with them to break through those barriers and obtain that feeling of happiness and fulfillment. Working with individuals, couples, or families to help them find happiness, peace, and their direction in life is what matters most.

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.
