Tell me if this sounds familiar - ‘I have to be consistent. People rely on me, and I have to take care of them. I need to be strong for them, and I can’t let them down, or I’ll just be a failure. I shouldn’t ask for help, because no one will understand why I feel this way anyway. I just have to deal with it. I don’t have time to feel.’ If this sounds like the voice that’s in your head - I’m here to tell you, that voice is full of shit. You don’t have to shoulder all that on your own, and it’s possible to build a sense of calm and peace in your life.

Please note that I am not accepting new clients at this time. If you are struggling with an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, substance abuse or trauma, please know that there is hope and healing for you. I enjoy walking along side people overcoming these disorders and being able to find out what true recovery means. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is an important one and that a person must have a good relationship with their therapist while the therapist utilizes therapeutic treatments that work.

For those struggling with anxiety, depression, grief or relationship issues, it is often difficult to find balance and peace. We may at times be unable to find that balance on our own and choose to reach out for support. I see that reaching out as both courageous and healthy. I believe successful therapy is based on a strong relationship between a therapist and a client. You will find that I provide support, safety and a nurturing environment as we explore issues and work together to facilitate growth and self-awareness.

My passion is helping you express your full potential in life. Our first step is to learn what holds you back. Like many, do you live with a nagging feeling that no matter what you do it's never good enough? Or perhaps you feel more depressed or anxious than you want to. Do you have difficulty forming intimate relationships? Are you coping with painful emotions by drinking too much or isolating? If so, you are not alone! I've helped many people overcome the obstacles to a more fulfilling life.

I believe we are all capable of positive change, healing, and growth and enjoy working with individuals who share this mindset. Sometimes we get stuck in life's challenges and would benefit from the compassion and skill of a therapist. I received my Master of Counseling in 2006. Since then, I have worked in a variety of behavioral health settings. The majority of my work has been with teens and adults struggling with behavioral health issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, self-harm, and co-occurring disorders.

Are you feeling stuck? Past practices and coping that once served the purpose of protecting you from further difficulties, often become obstacles to your well-being as well as interfere with your functioning in relationships and community. When caught in the cycle of stress and / or trauma you may build a narrative that involves blaming of others and / or shaming and blaming yourself. By seeing the contributing biological, psychological, and social factors and by taking responsibility for changing the things you are capable of changing, you begin to successfully navigate obstacles. I am here to help.

Hello and welcome! The first step is finding the right therapist with whom you think you'll connect, and for many, this is a daunting process. So congratulations for considering investing in yourself and your mental health. If you’re looking for someone to listen to you, validate you, or just sit with you as you process your emotions, therapy can be that place. “The battlefield is in the mind, the prize is the soul”-Prince

Hi there, and welcome. Let’s talk about the struggles that brought you here. Let’s also talk about the strength. Whether you’re giving therapy a first try, or another chance, I know it’s not easy. But we’re both here because of our shared belief that things can improve with the right support. Now let’s nurture your belief - in therapy and, most importantly, in yourself. You can change harmful behaviors that take more than they give. You can validate your past trauma and get out from under it. You can meet your emotional needs that were not met while growing up. You can learn to more fully love yourself and, in turn, receive love.

Sometimes we can feel stuck in our life and the patterns that arise. We might be experiencing depression and/or anxiety. We could be going through a transition or just regular life stress. Or maybe we are on a journey to heal after trauma. Whatever it may be, sometimes we need help or support along the way. I believe we continue to grow throughout our lives, and we have the capacity within ourselves for positive change. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients to talk, think, feel, process, learn, and heal.

Therapy is a collaborative process of discernment, self discovery, and change. Loss, transitions, family of origin issues, addictions, work and money worries can make life stressful and difficult to manage. During these times we feel stuck and alone. Change happens when someone is present with you in a supportive environment. My approach is psychodynamically based, incorporating neuropsychological, mindfulness, and body-based techniques. Together we will address your needs, celebrate your successes, and allow you to create the space to become the person you desire to be; the person you know you are in your heart.

I AM CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. THANK YOU. Sometimes life brings challenges which become opportunities to grow and change. It can catch one off guard and may cause disillusion. When that happens, we seek answers, resolutions or someone for validation. As a psychotherapist, I am fortunate to witness miracles everyday with my clients. The smallest step forward is still a miracle. It takes courage to take the smallest step.

Telehealth appointments only. For many of us, life has been a complicated venture. Whether it be childhood trauma, relationship issues, profound loss or difficulty adjusting; our symptoms can be overwhelming. For some, the onset of depression and/or anxiety is new and confusing while for others it’s been a long-time uninvited companion.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 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.
