Have you needed to question your relationship with alcohol or drug use? Whether you're struggling with a recent event or an ongoing situation, I encourage a thoughtful personalized approach, before committing to an intensive intervention (that may be unnecessary). You deserve better. My approach gets you away from shame based "programming" and into creating a meaningful life. I specialize in harm reduction and moderation management, so if your drinking is problematic, but not "alcoholic" this may be right for you. Ambulatory opiate detox and out of state or criminal justice assessment services available

I prioritize developing a therapeutic relationship that is founded upon trust, integrity, compassion, and non-judgment. The emphasis is less focused on "pathology" and more on strength, resilience, and developing an optimal worldview. It is my hope to support you to be more content in life, learn new ways to re-engage life and become more empowered to enact your vision of change. It takes tremendous courage to take the first steps toward healing, change, and growth. Thank you for considering working with me to support you on this journey.

Do you feel you tried your best to resolve your problems in vain? Do you feel stuck in your efforts to make your relationship work? Therapy may seem unnatural -you are hiring a stranger to look into your personal problems. However, when everything else fails, it is a smart decision to seek external help and use accumulated wisdom and professional knowledge which may provide you with new perspectives and insights. My approach to therapy is to discover untapped resources and strengths within your relationships and yourself to help you find solutions for your problems.

So often we compromise our own needs to please someone else. We might have learned to do this as children to get along with our parents and family members. As we move into adulthood, this habit stays with us and can cause us to feel lonely, confused, not good enough, and a sense that something important is missing in our lives.

I believe that valuable therapeutic work can only be done with a strong and trusting relationship between client and therapist. I work to create a safe and comfortable environment in which you can truly show up as yourself, and know that you will be accepted and seen just as you are. My approach is warm and authentic. I want therapy to be so much more than me sitting in front of you and asking “...how does that make you feel?” If you’re interested in integrating art, play, movement, music, sand tray, or spiritual practices into our work - let’s do it! We all deserve to take up space in ways that feel good.

As a therapist, I believe simply in a person's ability to change whether it is drawing on the strengths one already has or stepping into the fear and excitement of new discovery. My role is to offer you a safe and respectful place where I acknowledge you, provide compassion for where you have been and support for where you will go. Therapy is a unique relationship built on trust. While I will cheerlead with you, I will also provide a mirror for you to find your own truth and that requires honest engagement and exploration of self. Life can be a challenge and if you are wanting to explore purpose and joy, I invite you to my practice.

The idea that one learns by experiencing and is truly capable of making the necessary shifts in their lives is a mantra I live by. When one person mirrors another with gentle listening, others are able to clearly see what no longer works in their lives. Ingrained habits coming from difficult childhoods could be the very source of havoc, that with conscious awareness, can shift. Perhaps the way one communicates is keeping love from flowing in your life. Maybe parenting a child who reminds you of yourself means confronting yourself on a deeply personal level. Or perhaps it is simply a life transition that is simply too much.

Hello... I would welcome talking with you in person or on the phone about what you are looking for and what I think I might be able to offer you. Together, we'd decide about the goodness of our fit. In my practice I work mainly with adults in individual or couple therapy as well as with psychotherapists who want consultation, particularly consultation that incorporates their personal psychological work. I bring 25+ years of experience to the practice of psychotherapy and continue to feel grown and deepened by this process.

The women I work with are dealing with immense pressure in their personal and/or professional lives–even more so given the pervasive realities of sexism and racism. Many of them work in helping professions (e.g., medical field, mental health, education, ministry) and feel overwhelmed and drained, anxious about kids and work, and frustrated with their relationships. Many of my clients are also activists and advocates working for equity and justice. They are exhausted and burned out, often feeling isolated from friends and family. For some their work is bringing up personal trauma that is hard to get a handle on.

You're "weird," you're queer, you were bullied for being nuero-divergent before we had a word for it. You know that this world doesn't fit you, but you were told that you needed to change to fit this world. You've been through it! And, the lack of attunment and understanding from those around you has only led to more trauma.

I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults who are looking for evidence-based therapy for anxiety disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and trauma. Anxiety and trauma can take away your feeling that you are capable and that the world is a safe place, and as a result, your world can become very small. Working with a therapist can help you or your child to deal with traumatic or anxiety-provoking experiences, try out more effective coping skills, and focus on achieving your goals.

The clients I often work with seem to have a history of not finding a therapist who gets them and the way they see the world. They struggle with feeling understood and have lost hope that there is anybody out there who can actually help them better their lives. They know there is more to them, they just don’t know how to bring it out of them. Most people of the people I work with just want to feel understood, they want someone to validate how their lives have unfolded to get where they are now, and from that moment, their lives seem to start unfolding. They just needed someone to help them make sense of it all.

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.
