I believe that the client is the expert in their own life. As a counselor, I see my role like a guide. I am always kind and direct with my clients if I see a pattern or something interesting but you get to decide which path we take. Ultimately, the therapy experience is your own, and you get to choose what it looks like. I am honored to be able to support you along your journey and hear your story.

We hear it a lot: "feel your feelings, love yourself, hold space for others, be gentle." But what does this even mean? How do you do something you were never taught to do? How do you show up for yourself, let alone those who rely on you the most like? We grow up with a lot of stories of how to be and act to fit in. Once we start to grow up, we often realize those lessons don't fit who we want to be, who we want to love, the way we want to parent or how to be a good friend. Whether your a child, teen or adult, we all deserve clarity around who we are. This is where I come in, your confidant and guide towards discovery and healing.

Let’s talk about what matters to you. Change happens and we ask ourselves “ Who am I Now?” “What is Meaningful to Me?” “What causes me pain and sadness?” “What makes me Laugh?” “Is loneliness a recurring theme?” “Why am I so angry?” Difficulties connecting with people and lack of assertiveness can cause resentment, anger, loneliness, and loss of meaning. We grow in our relationships with ourselves and each other. Healthy relationships make us feel alive. The ability to positively assert ourselves creates increased self esteem and authentic relationships.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. This is where I try to connect with you in a deep way over a virtual platform and I assume I know what you are going through. To be honest, I don't. But I know pain. I know you know pain too and although we may have had some of the same pains, it's my job to get to know yours and help you find a way through it that is bearable and meaningful. Most people don't know what to do when you are hurting and when they try, it often makes it worse. I know there is no magic wand to erase your pain, but I also know a way through it.

I specialize in working with 2e/gifted/highly sensitive/ND people dealing with anxiety, stress, perfectionism, and self esteem issues. Sometimes things just really suck. You feel like no one gets it; maybe no one gets YOU. Everyone else seems to have it together in a way that you can't even imagine right now. You feel completely overwhelmed by all the things you have to do. You just want to feel better.

Waitlist for new clients
Waitlist available. Do you feel like your past experiences have left you disconnected from yourself and others? Or maybe you’re starting to recognize how your upbringing shaped you—and you’re ready to break cycles, not just cope with them. Perhaps you're a woman that looks like you have it together—but inside, your mind won’t slow down? The overthinking, self-doubt, and harsh inner voice are exhausting. Maybe a life change like pregnancy or postpartum left you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly wondering, “Why does this feel so hard for me?”

Many of the people I work with know the stress of being queer in a world that doesn't make room for them. Others are standing in the long shadow of childhood wounds, family dysfunction, and relationship patterns that feel impossible to change. Often, these areas overlap. They're stuck in loops of over-functioning, people-pleasing, and numbing from the grief, complexity and loneliness. They're resilient but exhausted in a way that's hard to explain to most people in their lives. This is the kind of work I'm built for.

With 25 years in clinical practice, I am a firm believer in the effectiveness of psychotherapy to improve self confidence and self esteem, to develop more fulfilling relationships and to set one's life course in a positive direction for the future. I try to not only help my clients find relief from bothersome symptoms but also to help get to the root of the problem that has brought them into therapy. In this way the therapy has a deeper and longer-lasting effect as clients learn how to free themselves from problematic patterns from the past and live more fully in the present.

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’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.

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.

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.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

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.

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.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
