While most people come to therapy with a problem or struggle that needs immediate attention, we often find that unraveling the present challenge can lead us into deeper work, revealing underlying patterns or beliefs that limit us or cause us pain. I am here to support you in working through what you are facing today, as well as diving deep into that quieter layer of experience that pulls at your heart, mind, and body. Together we can attend to your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, and develop your sense of self-trust and knowing. Above all, I aim to meet you where you are and shape my approach to your needs as each session unfolds.

Many clients are in crisis and seeking assistance with a specific issue: Divorce, Grief, Addiction, Depression, Medical Diagnosis, Anxiety, or Life Transition. Therapy helps treat the turmoil that is the natural result of these issues. The skills developed during therapy help clients live full, happy and rich lives. Clients generally arrive with a specific personal crisis. I work in unison with clients to facilitate a deeper, richer, sense of identity. Each individual is held from a perspective of capability, competency, and resiliency, that bring about a sense of continuity and recognition of their authentic self.

Participating in therapy, mindfulness, or any practice of healing or self development takes vulnerability and courage. I help hard working men and women who are impacted by stress and/or trauma to quickly uncover internal resources and to untangle sources of stress, so they can show up clear, calm, and connected with their families, at work, and everywhere in between. I see you. I know what you're going through. And I know that it seems easier to just keep pushing and getting things done than it is to stop. I know you wish you could "just get over it". If you are stuck and don't know what to do next, let's connect.

When I was 18, I was kicked out of college because of substance abuse that was masking my personal struggles. The gap between 15 and 30 is often seen as the "best" time in people's lives, but I know how challenging it can be. Navigating new relationships, responsibilities, independence, identity issues and social pressures is so demanding. I am proud to have pulled myself out of that negative spiral, and I now strive to support young people - and their families - in doing the same.

Online Therapists
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
