When something feels like it's not working, one of hardest steps is often realizing just that. Challenging times may ask you to step out of your comfort zone which can feel uncomfortable, unsettling, or even scary. My therapeutic approach is one of compassion, collaboration, and non-judgement. I want to foster an environment where you feel safe to honor your true, authentic self while facing whatever is challenging you at this time. Despite incredibly challenging situations, many have been able to uncover their resiliencies and learn new ways to rebuild their lives and relationships.

I work with people using a variety of philosophies, but those encompassing humanistic and psychodynamic theories inform most of my thoughts related to psychotherapy. This generally means I am most interested in focusing on emotions, insight, relationships, past experiences, meta-emotion, self-worth, and authenticity. I rely heavily on discussing shame, vulnerability, emotional needs, and creating meaning in life. My work is fairly non-directive, and I will be most focused on helping you find your own authentic path by reflecting and exploring deeper meanings and patterns that arise in our discussions.

Deciding to make changes in life can be extremely difficult and I hope to support you through your process. I will help you to identify the behavior(s) that you believe are holding you back. I work with a lot of individuals struggling with depression and anxiety; most of my clients have also struggled in engaging in healthy sexual behaviors and have experienced behaviors such as pornography viewing which has made it difficult for them to connect with their partners. I am committed to helping you develop better coping skills that will help you to think, feel, and behave in ways that will enrich and fulfill your life.

Do you have the feeling something’s missing? Maybe it seems there should be more ease, more joy, more fulfilling relationships, more creativity, more sense of direction, or just more “something”? If this seems familiar, you’ve come to the right place. Many of us struggle trying to get life right. We find that we have some problems we just can’t seem to get a handle on. Or we may have success tackling a specific problem, only to be met with another one. Or we find the problem we thought we’d conquered comes back. Or maybe it doesn’t come back, but keeping it at bay is a constant effort. What if there is another way? There is.

Based in Phoenix, I work with clients around the country and the world as licensing allows, including via Telehealth. I'm so glad you're here. The world can feel like an inhospitable home at times. Relationships can be unsettled, self-medicating can dominate, and the past can haunt like a persistent familiar ghost. Healing is necessary, because you are necessary. No matter how you may struggle - there is no one else quite like you, you are the very best at being you, you possess gifts and magic that only you can bring to the world. Therapy is about coming home to yourself - your physical body, emotional body or heart, and mind.

I was truly drawn to my profession, and I have been a psychotherapist my entire adult life. I love working with individuals, couples and families. It is an honor to help them overcome fears and worries that block success and well-being and replace self-defeating patterns with life-enhancing behaviors. My greatest joy is watching couples and families communicate more effectively, understand each other better, and grow closer.

Relationships are the cornerstone of our health. I hold the belief that the relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for all your relationships with others. But where did we learn how to behave in relation to others? Our family of origin. Our parents or caretakers taught us that family relationships not only provide the templates on which we base other relationships but also carry lifelong emotional charges. I utilize the framework of understanding clients from their families of origin. When you take a closer look, your adult relationships can point you in the direction of your unresolved childhood wounds.

Perhaps one too many times, people have asked how you are doing and you say fine, but you really aren’t. The real truth is that you are feeling anxious or depressed or both. Are you experiencing job pressures, relationship issues, or just feeling overwhelmed by life? Or maybe you have been suffering from anxiety and depression most of your life. When we feel stuck, it seems that it will always be that way. But your life can be happy! I am here to help. I care and I will listen to you in a supportive way and teach you tools to discover the happiness that you seek and deserve.

You are worn out and tired of the drama, big behaviors, fighting and discord in your relationships. Is there something big about who you are or who they are that might be affecting your relationship? You have self- doubt and think you must be the problem. You keep telling yourself you won’t let it happen again, but nothing seems to change? You feel tired, depressed, and even angry that you are not enjoying deep, personal rewarding relationships with a spouse, parents, your children or a significant other in your life. You want a change, you want to find healthy rewarding ways to get your needs met in a relationship.

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.
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.
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 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.
