I offer therapy via telehealth on Zoom or in person by arrangement.
Are you and your partner having the same painful conversations over and over again? Many couples feel stuck in cycles where small disagreements turn into hurt, frustration, or distance. You may still care deeply about each other but feel unsure how to reconnect.
I also work with adults navigating midlife transitions. Many people in their 50s, 60s, and 70s find themselves re-evaluating relationships, identity, retirement, or family roles. Therapy can offer a thoughtful space to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

I enjoy connecting with my clients and working collaboratively with them to create positive change. I strongly believe that no one is "too far gone", "too damaged", or "beyond help". All individuals have an innate ability to self-right, heal, change, grow and thrive, which starts from the inside out. Sometimes this is difficult to foster, but that does not mean it cannot be done. You have already begun your journey by visiting this page. In my practice, I utilize a caring, holistic, client-centered approach tailoring treatment specifically to each individual, as one size does not fit all.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
