As a Psychotherapist I understand that human pain, suffering and changes in development can be difficult to navigate alone. Our social system can lack the reinforcement we need to successfully navigate life. It is my belief that therapy can assist with helping to navigate, regroup, and regain our happiness - which is different for each person. I also understand how therapy with the right person can make a major difference in regrouping and regaining happiness. We all deserve happiness and our happiness starts and ends with us. Take the first step toward regaining your happiness - Open Up to the possibilities.

It’s time to step outside of your comfort zone and do something you’ve never done before. That’s the first step of becoming the best version of you possible. In order to grow and change you have to be willing to become comfortable being uncomfortable. Many of us live by rules of engagement provided to us by our parents, upbringing, culture, community, etc. Some of the rules that you are currently living by are based on who you were and not who you currently are. When you begin living life on your own terms you create new rules of engagement that allows you to live a more authentic life.

My practice focus includes adults (18+) struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, life transitions, disordered eating, relationship issues, and a desire to develop more effective ways to cope. Life comes with many unanticipated challenges that can leave us feeling stuck, resulting in feelings of anxiety, depression, shame, guilt and overwhelm. Without effective coping skills, this can lead us to deal with stress in ways that only lead to more stress. I fully understand these challenges, and you are not alone. We can work together to help you feel like yourself again.

True growth and healing happen in the most uncomfortable spaces at times. However, you do not have to wait until you are in the eye of a storm to get assistance. Embarking on the therapeutic journey is an important life decision and finding a therapist whose expertise fits your needs is just as vital. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I would like to work with you to achieve your goals by helping you cultivate self-awareness, identify personal strengths, and gain new perspectives. I have a passion for working with clients experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, complex trauma, career/life transitions, PTSD, and depression.

Are you stuck, knowing you're not experiencing life as you deeply desire yet unsure of how to move forward? You were designed to live as your highest self..yet perhaps you aren't. My practice is built on the principle that you were made to be deeply known--to be understood and unconditionally accepted by yourself, which then profoundly impacts your wellness and relationships. Your life story matters because it reveals your past, gives insight to the present, and offers the ability to heal your future. Through the self growth process you can and will be who you were meant to be with strong worth and healthy relationships.

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.
