I believe that our mental health needs attention and empathy. I believe that individuals should not be afraid to speak about what they feel regarding what they have experienced or what they are currently going through. I provide compassion to my clients as we walk through what they may be experiencing (I Corinthians 16:14).

Your partner is not showing up in the relationship, and you feel lonely and isolated. You struggle with conflicts and healing from past betrayals, such as infidelity. And you are desperately trying to heal the indivisible scars - your past traumas. You’ve tried to be vulnerable but now you feel like that has been used against you. Not anymore! It is time for healing!

The decision to seek therapy can be intimidating and the reality is that we all encounter struggles as we walk through life. I seek to normalize and destigmatize the concept of mental health. Far from being shameful, embarking on this journey shows considerable strength of character. I am passionate about creating a safe space to process feelings and explore new ways to understand your own thoughts and emotions. I pride myself on being relatable and use humor to stay grounded and remind my clients that we are all simply human. I utilize many modalities in my practice as I believe one size does not fit all.

Limited availability for virtual individual sessions. Do you feel disconnected from your authentic self, unable to form deep, meaningful connections, unsure of where you belong in the world, overly vulnerable and sensitive, constantly needing to protect yourself while feeling that whatever goes wrong in life is your fault? All these symptoms could indicate unhealed trauma.

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.
