Are you dealing with issues of anxiety, sadness or traumas that are interfering with you being the best you would like to be? Are fears adding to the mix? Perhaps you would be more comfortable in a telehealth setting! Do you like the idea of being in control of your therapy by partnering up with a therapist who guides you on a path to healing? Many clients present with highly stressful recent and past experiences and seek relief from pain. We would work together though the client/psychologist relationship to address the pain by identifying roots and setting up a plan to heal. Perhaps school or career/life issues need help?

The great poet Rumi wrote "out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." This quote really encompasses a therapeutic setting for me. A place where there is no judgement and you are heard with warmth and high regard. In my sessions you can be expect to be treated with kindness, empathy and be received with no judgement. This is my private practice, which means, you will not have a therapist turnover in a few months. I’m very personable and real. I will care about you.

If you have struggled with your weight and tried every diet that comes online, you are my client! My clients are usually borderline diabetic and struggle with weight loss and belly fat. I treat my clients from a nutritional and coaching mindset. Now with new scientific research, we know that it takes more than just "saying no" to extra portions. We know it takes getting your body chemistry back in line, by righting the ghrelin and leptin systems. What's that? Become a patient and you will find out. Oh, and did I tell you I have a 100% success rate? And mental health improves as well! Good Food equals a Good Mood!

For many people, faith is an integral part of their sense of wholeness. For clients who feel that way, I integrate faith into the experience of psychotherapy. Frequent issues that clients bring into counseling include relationships, depression, anxiety, life transitions, illness, and grief. But regardless the struggle, the integration of scientifically evidence-based practices alongside faith belief systems offer a holistic approach to therapy that many clients appreciate. Clients always have the option to exclude faith from their counseling experience.

My clients typically have recent life stressors related to relationships, career exploration/burnout, recent adjustment to changes, difficulty coping, anxiety, and depression. They are typically looking for immediate solutions to overwhelming feelings that they no longer know how to handle. My solution focused approach has shown remission from depression in as little as 1 session and rescission from anxiety in as few as 1.5 sessions. I am noted to be in the 98th percentile of clinicians through clinical support metrics in an evidence-based program.

Too often, we equate caring for our mental and emotional health with weakness and failure - especially when we're taught that our "strength" is based on our ability to handle the stresses of everyday life without "cracking". I've dedicated my career to overcoming this myth by helping young adults and adults develop wellness plans that promote emotional and mental balance, internal peace, and positive coping and communication skills.

Most of my clients come to me in crisis, looking for immediate solutions. Others come with long term goals, a desire to make more of their lives, avoid mistakes, overcome negative emotions, make friends, survive losses. In most cases, after a period of history-taking, data analysis, diagnosis, it becomes possible for the client to develop insight into the causes of his or her distress, and to establish some stratagems and goals that lead to improvement or elimination of the problems. Put simply, in my clinic psychotherapy is aimed at helping the client exchange unproductive patterns of thought and behavior for a better life.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

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.
