Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an efficient and research-based protocol for helping couples recover from crisis, develop a deep soul connection, or to start with an excellent system for navigating a new relationship. EFT is my life's work. I take it very seriously and have committed my professional career to a high level of expertise and the ability to care deeply and authentically for the individuals and couples I work with. If you or your partner is struggling with any form of addiction that is not in recovery, I will refer you for additional support before starting or in addition to the work I offer.

You are constantly questioning yourself, relying on validation from other people to feel good enough. Sometimes, you don’t know who you are, and you find yourself thinking about others and their needs before your own. Your mind races with thoughts about what others might think of you or how they might react, which leaves you wondering, “Why do I feel this way? I’m just not enough.” You sense yourself shutting down with feelings of fear, anxiety, worry, and dread… It might be time to take the next steps to discover how you can more fully engage in your life and the lives of others with greater ease and with greater joy.

Greetings! As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, MHP, CMHS, I believe building a healthy therapeutic relationship is cultivated by implementing comprehensive, person-centered, trauma informed, evidence-based clinical approaches! When personally motivated for intrinsic change, therapy can provide a secure setting inviting self-examination while exploring multi-generational systemic and family trauma. To sustain improved healthy symptom changes, engaging in consistent treatment clinically proven to restructure negative cognitions directly impacting personal emotional regulation and negative behavioral patterns, is crucial.

I have been a social worker for over 20 years having been honored by people who have shared their lives with me. I believe everyone has the "answers" within themselves. When one's positive capacities are supported, one is more likely to act on their strengths. I would like to help you bring out your strengths and "answers" in yourself.

You're pretty much a survival-mode expert. You take pride in your robust ability to show up and take care of the shitty parts of life. You've managed and masked well until now. Suddenly your quirks have become magnified, old wounds re-triggered, and the shame and blame intensified; you can't hold it together much longer. Time’s passed and your ability to cope has too - only secretly. You’ve got no one left to talk to because you’ve convinced everyone you’re “fine”. You find yourself escaping to the bathroom to cry because you feel so overwhelmed. You're lost, stuck, sad, and lonely. You wonder how to take any kind of action...

Do you feel "stuck?" In other words, you are at a point of change, something HAS to change, and sometimes you have no clue what change to make. And, on top of that . . . you are afraid of change. Life's shows us that change is inevitable, whether the change is planned or not. Often along with that change come some very strong emotions, stress in our relationships, trauma, and usually we are confronted with some decisions we have to make. Hopefully, the challenge we face also presents us with the possibility of new dreams and maybe brings us closer to achieving long held goals.

Therapy is a very individual process with each person having their own concerns and challenges that they are looking for help with. Maybe it feels like you’re constantly unsure and struggling while everyone around you is doing fine? Or like there are an overwhelming number of issues in the world that worry you and you don’t know what to do? Maybe your life feels like something isn’t working but what that is isn’t clear? Regardless of what you’re struggling with, my overall goal in therapy is to work with you to build up the skills, confidence, and support you need to move into a life that works better for you.

I enjoy working with people. The process of meeting others where they’re at in support of a collaborative effort to create positive change is the meaning of my work. My evidence-based training lies primarily in CBT, ACT, and DBT-Mindfulness. Beyond the evidence-based models I incorporate their philosophical underpinnings within existentialism, stoicism, and eastern philosophies. I have deep love, respect and compassion for the human condition. I am a father, husband, Veteran, clinician and human being. My personal philosophy involves an approach of education, meditation and application. Like others, I'm a "work in progress."

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.
