Stress and trauma can take many forms. Sometimes we survive an event such as a car accident, wildfire, assault, or military-related event. Or we may notice chronic struggles with trusting others and ourselves, and feeling stressed and unsatisfied in our relationships. The experience of trauma can significantly impact how we change or grow in each present moment, how we connect and separate from others, and how we experiment, take risks, and resource our creativity. Let's co-create a therapy relationship that works to support the development of loving relationships with self and others.

Making the decision to work with a therapist is a big deal. It takes courage to allow someone to see your vulnerabilities. You may be dealing with a crisis, loss or life transition. You may be feeling stuck, anxious, stressed, angry, depressed, grief-stricken or some combination of these. I will meet you with warmth, compassion, curiosity and will actively engage with you as you unfold these layers that are complicating your life. I believe you possess an inherent strength that has gotten you this far in life. Let me help bolster this strength that you might have forgotten about.

Play is the language of childhood and I speak it fluently. Whatever situation your child is going through, we will face it together. We might be adventurers, exploring the rocky seas of emotion regulation. Perhaps we are princes and princesses trapped in a castle of loneliness, race car drivers going around on the track of ADHD, or warriors battling monsters in the dark. We might even teach a bear to use the potty.

I am a clinician whose passion is working with individuals, couples and groups from diverse cultures and backgrounds. I work from a whole-person and inclusive perspective, welcoming clients with their own personal circumstances. At times, anyone may feel overwhelmed, stressed, stumble and just feel unsure of what to do. This is a great time to talk with a clinician who is interested in your concerns, your well-being and desired outcome. The initial meeting is intended to be informative and decisive. With commitment and partnership during the therapy process, getting to a productive and restored place is expected .

My philosophy is that the path to healing is through self-compassion, acceptance, and strong connections. My ideal client is someone who wants to change how they navigate an aspect of their life (such as coping with anxiety/depression, parenting, relationships, a life transition) and wants support for bringing that change about. Life is full of ups and downs, with perhaps more downs than ups in recent years. I believe that, with a strong foundation of mental health that includes compassion and supportive relationships, those “downs” can be opportunities to pause, reflect, and grow. We'll work together on building that foundation.

Life transitions, particularly those related to anxiety, trauma, divorce, and navigating co-parenting can be difficult. Maybe you don’t currently have the coping skills to manage what can be a trying and traumatizing time. Challenges like navigating young adulthood, managing anxiety, maintaining a healthy relationship, or choosing to end a relationship can be difficult and riddled with uncertainty. I can personally recall how helpful and reassuring it was to have someone in my life help me by providing direct feedback and compassionate support as I navigated these challenges.

Are you someone who could check “all the boxes” for a fabulous life but simply don’t feel happy? Perhaps you have achieved many great accomplishments, possibly since childhood, that make others around you envious but you often still struggle to find joy in any of it. At times, maybe you put on a happy face for others, but are left feeling as if no one has any idea how you really feel. Oftentimes, people in your position also want to please others by trying to do everything perfectly but still feel like they fall short. There is a reason for your sadness and I can help shed light on your discontent. We can figure this out!

Utilizing a trauma informed approach, I work to build a safe therapeutic relationship with you, in order to address the underlying question of "What happened to you?," rather than "What's wrong with you?" Understanding that depression, anxiety and other mental health challenges stem from complex and myriad issues, including systemic social issues related to racism and oppression, family of origin issues, and the impact of trauma and adverse life experiences. My goal is to assist you to utilize life's adversities to discover and cultivate your inner strength and resilience, in service of your lifelong journey of growth and healing.

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.
