Welcome! I am a therapist and health coach working with individuals who are ready to shift out of negative relationship cycles. My clients come in reporting feelings of frustration, disappointment, and confusion - they are warm, kind, and want healthy relationships but consistently choose counterparts who seem dismissive, uncaring, manipulative, inconsistent, immature, or a combination of these qualities. They want to achieve long-term partnership but not just with anyone! My clients want to attract the best so they also work on improving their self-image.

Are you in a time of transition and feeling anxious, overwhelmed, alone, or even doubting your decisions? Do you feel stuck in the same cycle of high conflict, poor communication, and lack of connection in your relationships? Or do you find that you have difficulty setting boundaries, juggling the many tasks in your day, and often say "yes" when you really want to say "no" to others?

Patients come to me when they have hit speed bumps in their lives - in their careers and relationships - where previous ways of behaving and thinking to manage feelings no longer work to their satisfaction. Typically, I work with people who may seem to others as prosperous relationally and successful occupationally, but experience themselves to be demoralized or inexplicably anxious, behaving in atypical ways, and often not thinking as clearly as they would like.

I am a therapist who integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques and systems theories into my clinical treatment of children, adolescents, and college students. Because I greatly value interdisciplinary work, I strive for successful collaboration with social workers, physicians, and educators in the provision of holistic behavioral healthcare for my clients. With a deep appreciation for the family system I partner with the important people in a child's life who often influence and affect their behavior through modeling and other relational processes. By providing concrete parenting strategies that increase self-efficacy, I aim to reduce disruptive behaviors & improve parent-child relationships.

Emotionally intense personalities, deep thinkers, and busy minds with sensitive hearts are welcome here. You're probably tired of people telling you that you're "too much": too needy, too talkative, too picky, too clingy, or (gulp!) too sensitive! Meanwhile, you're almost constantly feeling not good enough inside: like a fraud, a failure, and falling short of finding the love, the career, the friends, the life you've aimed for. You've possibly wondered if you have chronic depression, anxiety, or adult ADHD. Anxiety, aloneness, existential angst, indecisiveness, and insecurity can leave you in an emotional tailspin.

My work with clients is collaborative. By identifying goals, highlighting strengths and resources and clarifying meaning and purpose for our lives we can regain peace, make healthy choices, and develop healthy thinking. In addition to traditional "talk" therapies I offer EMDR where indicated. ( One of three evidence based therapies recognized by WHO,US DOD/VA and other world health organizations.) My office is a calm, safe place to assess needs,explore options, develop a therapeutic protocol, set goals, focus on strengths and regain balance. I do this in a caring, supportive, confidential manner.

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.
