I have an optimistic perspective in life. I am non judgmental, caring, authentic and always present in interactions. I belive that we cannot control everything however what we can control is our reaction to events. I have worked with clients that are needing support to reach goals in overcoming losses, gaining confidence, self esteem and are wanting to have better understanding of their strengths. I belive in the field and view clients from a humanistic frame I believe everyone is doing their best and I am helpful in aiding clients to put things in perspective.

I am in awe every day of the tremendous strength and courage my clients exhibit when they make the decision to begin therapy. Clients I work with are ready to do the difficult work involved in healing past trauma and childhood wounds. I work with clients who are eager to engage in learning new coping skills in therapy and are actively practicing these skills outside of therapy. Many of them even engage in their own self-study with recommended "homework" and reading material. I work with teens, young adults, mature adults, couples & families. I offer families/couples new skills to improve communication and relationships.

Change begins when we change ourselves, so whether you come alone or with someone you love, I encourage you to come! Healing occurs when we share our struggles in confidence with someone we trust. I will provide a safe, comfortable environment where you can be yourself & tell your story. I will also encourage & challenge you to be the best YOU that you can be.

My philosophy of therapy is holistic, meaning that I believe people are made up of many parts: body, soul (mind, emotions, will), and spirit. These parts must function in a balanced relationship in order for us to thrive. How we feel about ourselves and how we view the world affects the quality of our relationships. When we can balance a positive identity with our role in the world while also remaining connected to others, we feel whole. Brokenness can occur if any of these relationships are out of balance. In therapy, I help my clients assess the lack of balance so they can figure out how to get whole again.

Do you find yourself struggling with a familiar theme repeatedly? Do you often feel triggered in your relationships that result in dynamics that keep you from feeling safe in? Is there a critical voice inside your head despite your hard work? You may be generous to help the people around you but struggle to be with yourself with the same kind of grace and kindness. I help people get unstuck from the place where they feel stuck, so they can be free from the effects of trauma and other difficult life circumstances. I want to help you find a sense of connection and peace within you and with the world around you.

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.
