Let's face it, life can be hard. Sometimes, so hard we don't know what to do or where to turn. Well, I believe that's where I come in. I've been helping people claw their way back to the top for decades. It is an interesting gift I have. I don't spend our time together psychoanalyzing you. Rather, I help people find realistic solutions and skills to transcend whatever barriers are blocking them. So, take a deep breath and give me a call.

With over twenty years experience in
LGBTQ
counseling, research, and teaching, I have a deep understanding of our community. Among
LGBTQ
individuals anxiety and depression may involve feelings of emptiness, relationship problems, interpersonal sensitivity, or addictions. The roots of these struggles can vary, but it helps to have a therapist who grasps the alienating impact of growing up in a world that disavows the core of who we are. I will help you address these issues, and others, through a deeper approach that can feel energizing, challenging, and even liberating.

Are you
trans
,
queer
, or non-monogamous? Do you feel at the edges of gender or relationship? Are you seeking support with gender transition? My practice is centered on supporting
trans
and
queer
people in creating lives that are vibrant, balanced, and celebrated. You can accomplish this by creating a clear roadmap to move from uncertainty to clarity in yourself, and in relation to others. People who choose to work with me are often seeking a therapist who has a lived experience with gender, sexuality, non-monogamy, and alternative family structures. When working with me the "non-typical" is honored as a strength.

I provide confidential and non-judgmental consultations, referrals, and professional psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and groups; specialize in working with the
LGBTQIA
+ community; and address a broad range of client concerns and multiple diagnoses including: anxiety, depression, isolation, stress, grief, and creative/spiritual blocks.
I believe that the therapy process is a practice of paying attention to what is actually happening - it sounds simple, but this is actually a deeply profound and challenging stance to maintain towards life. The work we do in therapy involves bringing elements of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, how we relate to ourselves and to others, and how we move through the world, from the darkness of the unconscious into the light of consciousness where we can take a look at them. We do not have to struggle and toil in order to implement change in our lives.

Another long stressful day at work, and now you’re driving home. This should be when you can finally relax, but the truth is, you’re already getting tense. You know that the moment you walk in the door, you’ll be bombarded with a long list of responsibilities. Make dinner, walk the dog, do the laundry – and no matter how much you do, it never seems like enough. You don’t know why she’s so unhappy. There was a time when your relationship was filled with warmth and understanding. Now, every interaction seems to lead to conflict. And you’re worried that if something doesn’t change soon, it may be too late to fix. You need help.

Everyone has a story to tell. Although a crisis or life transition is often what leads one to therapy, crisis doesn’t have to be the sole catalyst for change. The drive towards personal growth and the shedding of self-defeating thoughts and behaviors can lead to a fulfilling, authentic life. Counseling is a rich experience that provides the opportunity for self-reflection, and therefore enhanced intimacy in relationships, increased self-awareness, and compassion. I offer my clients warmth, hope, and a direct style that confronts underlying issues that have contributed to pain, including understanding how the past shapes the present.

This type of therapy can be a good fit for individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, existential crisis, or identity exploration. Some possible benefits of psychodynamic therapy include increased awareness of emotions, increased self-esteem and deepening in interpersonal relationships.

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.
