My experience includes treating
adults
overcome problems of childhood abuse, trauma, relationship issues, parenting, and marital conflicts.
The one common factor among all human beings is our need for love and connection. We thrive when our relationships are positive and suffer when we are not connecting with our loved ones and it impacts us emotionally and physically. Often times physical pain and illness are result of psychological pain. Unhealthy relationships can lead to anxiety, depression, anger, co-dependency, and addiction that are symptoms and not the root of the problem. I help people with identifying root of the problem so they can make adjustments in thinking, feeling, and behaving and become free of symptoms.

This is a place for children, teens, and
adults

Reaching out for support can be difficult. Often when we finally decide to reach out we are already experiencing overwhelm and feeling discouraged. Maybe you are experiencing anxiety, having difficulty sleeping, being more irritable than usual, or having difficulty enjoying things in your day to day life. If you've experienced trauma you could be struggling with flashbacks, fear, avoidance, and difficulty moving forward in you life. Maybe your child or teen is having new behaviors, tantrums, isolation, or difficulty with connection. I am here for all of you and will stand with you on your healing journey.

I provide a clean, safe space for children to express themselves in learning how to appropriately ask for what they need from the other
adults
and people in their lives.
Are you feeling anxious about new changes in your life? Although exciting things are happening, such as a new career or starting college, it can feel daunting to know what to expect. Sometimes we shut down, and sometimes we act out of character. These are responses to the events around us, and having support can help us feel grounded and more confident. Clients often tell me my ability to understand and relate helps them feel validated and gain more momentum in their progress. Trust in the therapy process is the first step to creating growth.

Is online therapy a good option?

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, 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, 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.
