I specialize in psychotherapy with
adults
.
You need a place to be yourself, where the underbelly and blemishes are welcome without shame or judgment. You work hard, try your best, and still struggle to understand why your life or relationships are not what you thought they would be. You want to feel comfortable and safe with another person who will be supportive and challenge you to take a deeper look inside and make changes that you and others will notice. You will be amazed at how your life makes sense when your emotional and behavioral patterns become conscious.

Hi! I realize that looking through many profiles can be overwhelming. I also realize how scary or uncomfortable it can be to reach out for help. It takes courage to do so but I also need you to know that it's that same courage that is going to help you or your child gain control of the struggles at hand. I am most effective with adolescents, young
adults
, and those who want to thrive in their 30s. I tailor my approach to the appropriate age level.

I work with women and men,
adults
and teenagers, in couples, in groups and individually.
I have been a therapist for nearly 40 years and continue to enjoy working with people who desire to make their lives more satisfying and fulfilling. We all have beliefs and patterns of behavior which do not serve us well, and might actually make us more miserable. I know that these beliefs and behaviors are our attempt to make things better, but that they are no longer useful. I also know that they can be changed with effort and patience.

Assessments for
adults
tend to be focused on questions such as whether ADHD, anxiety or depression symptoms are getting in the way of functioning.
Defining the problem accurately is the first step to intervening effectively, and that's where assessment comes in. A detailed psychoeducational evaluation and intervention plan can increase confidence that you understand the issues, and are directing resources appropriately. I offer three types of assessments: comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations, re-evaluation of previously diagnosed issues, and targeted assessments for ADHD, anxiety or depression.

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.
