I specialize in supporting young adults (18-30s) who are navigating life's stressors. The early adult years can be the most challenging of one’s life. We find ourselves adjusting to countless new experiences; navigating relationships, loneliness, school/careers, self-esteem/body image, and finding motivation and direction. I recognize that everyone needs support and act as a companion and a mentor. As a multiracial woman in the US, I recognize the strong desire and need to find your true identity and sense of belonging. Although I support folks from diverse backgrounds, I have specialized experience supporting the LGBTQ+ community.

Throughout childhood, children express themselves much better through play than by talking. The process of play therapy creates an environment where children do not have to talk directly about their sadness, anxieties, worries, or problems. Instead, children express themselves symbolically through their play; they communicate their conscious and unconscious feelings and experiences and in doing so, see that difficult feelings and memories become less intense and that they are able to work through and find solutions to their problems.

***NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** Therapy is one of the most valuable measures of self-care one can take to live a well-balanced life. I am honored to support my clients as they navigate rocky or unfamiliar waters during periods of adjustment, anxiety and depression. These seasons of our lives can feel unsettling and cause us to feel “stuck” in an unpleasant place. Fortunately, they also present us with the opportunity for growth toward a more rewarding life. Unveiling anxiety, depression, unsettling thoughts, insecurities, trauma and disappointment requires courage- I commend you for taking this first step!

Currently not accepting new clients. Life presents us with challenges daily. It is how you meet these challenges that determines the quality and course of life. Are you overwhelmed, having feelings of anxiousness, sadness, depression or confusion? Maybe you are experiencing a loss or repeating self-defeating behaviors, or emotional patterns that lead to unhappiness in relationships, work or other areas of your life. My specialty areas include women's and relational issues, life transitions, depression, trauma, and stress/anxiety. If you are struggling and feel that some change needs to happen, I would like to be a resource for you.

I received my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Yale University in 1974. My four-year postdoctoral Certificate in Psychoanalysis is from the Westchester Center for the Study of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (1993). Psychotherapy speaks the language of feelings. All of us struggle with painful feelings: fear and insecurity, sadness and grief, shame and guilt, conflict and confusion. All of us suffer traumatic experiences, large or small. I try to listen, attentively and non-judgmentally, to your feelings and experiences. Together, we work to increase self-understanding, understanding of others, and personal growth.

The rationale mind knows exactly what to do, but sometimes there is a gap between cycling into the same patterns and behaviors that tend to be self-destructive/sabotaging and living the life you want. If you find yourself in what feels like an unbreakable cycle ridden with negative views of self and others or negative behaviors, I may be a fit for you. I strongly believe that at our core the way we interpret what we experience creates narratives that guides our behaviors or how we react to things. It can mean the difference between being hopeful and hopeless.

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.
