My lifetime time passion has been working alongside those that at a certain point in their life seek support, acceptance and guidance. I see the therapeutic process as a shared journey, whether it is with an individual, a family, or a group. I incorporate in my work different therapeutic styles and provide a safe space for you to process your experiences. Because of my work with families, I also understand the need to be able to detect early academic and behavior difficulties in their children. The Mental Health Evaluation does just that. The earlier the detection of those difficulties the more successful that child will be in life.

I have worked with people from all socio-cultural-economic demographics. My work focuses on helping client's identify patterns in their lives which do not serve them positively. Emotional, intellectual, psychological and behavioral habits develop in childhood. We are often unaware of how these habits affect our decisions and overall ability to choose constructively. I will help to explore and modify thoughts, feelings and behaviors which challenge a happy, healthy lifestyle.

These life transitions, can make us feel stuck, and lead to mental health concerns. As a psychotherapist I can help you clear the muddy waters and guide you through recovery to better mental wellness. I can assist you in finding again what makes you whole

Within each precious life, change is not only possible but inevitable. We can’t always avoid adversity, but we can always choose our response to it, and it is within this choice that we can find the potential for growth and freedom. Therapy allows us to pause, step back, reassess the situation we are facing, and finally to move in the direction of self-care, fulfillment and joy. My decades of teaching and practicing yoga/meditation have profoundly informed my therapeutic approach, allowing me to draw on a blend of Eastern mindfulness and Western cognitive psychology.

I help adults heal from trauma caused by adverse life experiences. At the heart of my practice is a passion to help others, and for over 14 years, I've been on a mission to empower people and break the stigmas surrounding mental health care. My approach is centered around addressing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), the root of many problems pertaining to physical (e.g. obesity) and mental (e.g. substance abuse) health. To address ACEs, I use the Grief Recovery Method (GRM), an approach that I advocate and specialize in as it has been refined for over 40 years and has personally helped me and my family.

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, 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.
