Personal freedom and well-being is possible Now. I address the systems of body, heart, and mind, using them as vehicles to gain greater insight, self-awareness, and freedom. The body system entails the physicality of life. The heart system encompasses the spacious awareness of love, compassion, and joy. The mind system holds the mind-states of emotion, thoughts, and patterned beliefs that either turn us away from Light or towards suffering - and when there is alignment and integration through all these systems healing occurs. Learn how to create the life you want & be able to enjoy it too!

Most people looking for a therapist do so because they are in some level of pain or distress. An effective therapy process provides the space for transforming such difficulties into the capacity for better coping, more satisfying relationships, and a stronger sense of self. I have dedicated years of training and experience to help with issues of individual suffering and relationship conflicts. I focus on a clear understanding of problems presented, and offer a process of resolution. I believe a supportive therapeutic process is most effective, and I provide an empathic connection.

I am dedicated to helping clients gain more insight, balance, and happiness in their lives. Together we can uncover underlying reasons for symptomatic behaviors and emotions and address those to learn healthier, more productive and beneficial ways to deal with challenging situations. As a transpersonal therapist, my goal is to help clients gain greater self-knowledge and richer inner lives. Identifying areas of concern and learning ways to heal and triumph adversity can be challenging; however, I believe that together we can produce meaning from them and become resilient.

Do you feel empty, alone, or paralyzed by fear and anxiety? Do you feel unable to cope with life's challenges? Maybe you feel frustrated with yourself for giving up on your true desires or generally unsatisfied, lost or without purpose? Suffering only forces the pain underground to emerge in old patterns that may be limiting your success or interfering with your ability to move past losses and create more fulfilling relationships. Change can be difficult, but the rewards are vast! Recognizing the complexity and uniqueness of each individual is essential to my collaborative and in-depth approach.

Have you noticed that there are very few male therapists? Many couples come into therapy with the woman pulling the man along while the man may erroneously feel ganged up on by the female therapist. So it is nice to have an emotionally available male therapist. I equally enjoy working with women. I work with children, teens and individuals also. Find out more at SandersTherapy.com.

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.
