It is common to question your decisions in life. Sometimes, it can seem like life is going so fast you find yourself feeling lost, anxious or overwhelmed. Perhaps things have gotten so tough that you feel judged, overall worthless and a burden to your friends and family. Maybe thinking about going to class, talking in front of peers, or even getting groceries creates worry that you will be rejected. Are you in so much pain that you have gotten to the point that you have considered or attempted to end your life? Do you feel like your fears have begun to take over who you are? Whether you are ready to make a change or just need someone to listen, I am here. My hope is that you will feel accepted, safe, and empowered as you begin to take your life back. Together, we will work to discover direction and meaning that will lead you towards being fulfilled and secure. Often the times in life when we face our fears we grow the most. Having support or even a sense of accountability can provide enough strength to grow and find purpose.

In our relationships, we hope to feel connected, cared for, and understood. However, after a conversation with a loved one, you may find yourself feeling frustrated, misunderstood, or exhausted. Conversations can feel like they're going in circles and you may be blowing up or shutting down before reaching a resolution. You may even find yourself communicating in ways that hinder connection and understanding because you aren't sure how else to express how you feel. If this sounds familiar, please understand that you're not alone. Together we can all work to process those responses and have healthier conversations.

I believe that symptoms and diagnoses are signs of identity conflict and efforts to try and control situations that are outside of our control. My approach focuses on creating a therapeutic relationship to support those working towards trauma recovery, addressing dissociation, fostering personality development, emotional regulation or helping process burnout with fellow therapist and healthcare professionals.

“I only want to meet you, exactly as you are, beyond your stories, your hopes and dreams. I want to meet what’s really here. Perhaps then, great change is possible.”-Jeff Foster " Therapy, like anything new, can feel like a gamble, a bit uncertain and maybe even nerve-wracking. But, on the other side of it, there’s a version of you waiting that you might not even know exists. My goal is simple: I want you to walk in just as you are, a blank canvas, ready to collaborate to figure things out. You are the expert on your life, and I’m here to be a mirror, reflecting the real you without judgment, shame, or guilt.

I am experienced working with adolescents and young adults with various life obstacles. My background includes assisting individuals who struggle with issues entailing addiction, relationships, grief, and areas of mental health. Today, seeking counseling can be a difficult step, but also a way to gain personal strength when life’s challenges make it hard to cope with stressors. As a counselor, I believe that creating a safe environment where you can openly express yourself and be totally transparent and non-judgmental by feeling supported is critical in the counseling process.

New Clients Welcome! Sometimes you can be in a room full of people and feel totally alone. You tell yourself that if anyone else knew your struggles they wouldn’t understand, they'd tell you to “get over it” or worse, they would reject you completely. We often strive to prove our value as people through achievement or by doing for others, and we lose sight of who we are and what we want. You deserve a space where you can be truly seen, heard, and accepted as you are where you're at; counseling can be that place.

Through my experience, I have to come to learn that counseling is most beneficial when possibilities of hope, healing, and action are developed through meaningful conversations. I see that my role as a therapist is to help patients to explore their life's narratives such that it enables them to explore new alternatives in order to develop new meaning in theirs lives.

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.
