Depressed? Anxious? Need Relationship help? Need to resolve trauma? I can help. Meeting the needs and challenges of my clients is what counseling is all about for me. I believe that people who come to see me should leave with the tools they need to create the lives they want to live.
As a down-to-earth, interactive therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve problems in the present, and long-standing patterns of behavior that are hindering them from the past.

Accepting new clients. As a counselor, it is my intention to give my clients the opportunity to tell me their story in a place where they are not judged and where they can begin to explore options for feelings and behaviors. The client-counselor relationship is about working together so the client can make positive changes in their lives. I see both couples & individuals. With couples, I can help people work on their relationship communication skills. I also work to help clients understand how past issues affect current choices and understand how thoughts and feelings affect behavior.

*** Not accepting new clients *** I truly believe that we all do the best we can and that we always have options and room for growth. As a counselor, I employ the use of an integrative approach which assists clients in their process of working through and with life experiences. I enjoy brainstorming with the client; to identify goals, learn and practice skills that enhance their individual abilities in a healthy manner. Such therapy is particularly well-suited to people, couples, and families who are struggling with life transitions, and have a genuine desire to pursue personal and professional growth.

I believe in the value of books and reading; they are powerful aids to mental health, growth and healing. What we read changes not only our thoughts and feelings, but can determine our long-term view of the world as well. Each person has an ongoing personal narrative or story that is shaped by our experiences--but mostly by our view of these experiences. We are our life story, in the sense that it influences our choices, what we value and what we fear in life, etc. The good news is that we can shape and change our life story through awareness, understanding, and compassion.

Accepting new clients. In my practice I work with individuals, couples, families, and small groups. Most of the people I see are between 13 and 75 years old; overcoming trauma, self-doubt, depression, anxiety, or loss. Many feel "different", marginalized, alone, misunderstood, or not "mainstream" enough. Some look fine, but feel out of place. Some are deaf or children of deaf adults (CODA). Others are physically challenged, caretakers, straight, lesbian, gay, transgendered, or unsure. After 30 years, I still feel it is honored to be part of the growth and change people experience as skills develop and clients " Enjoy Life More".

Openings available Sun through Wed for general counseling and trauma therapy (both "T" and "t"), including anxiety, and life transitions. Everyone experiences the unexpected. We can't change difficult situations of the past, but we can learn to understand the impact of life events and ways to move forward effectively and confidently. You can find relief from intrusive thoughts and ruminating, inability to concentrate, sleep disruption, anxiousness, irritability, over/under reacting, etc. We all have an innate drive to be well.

Counseling can be both an exciting and scary adventure kind of like getting on a rollercoaster, delighted for the ride but filled with butterflies. You’re looking for acceptance, and connection. You feel unloved, alone, or fight to understand your emotions. You desire the ability to stand up for yourself, create healthy relationships, and set boundaries. With the ever-growing pressure of societal expectations, you aim for perfection but often fall short of the finish line. The word balance brings hope; you ache for the ability to feel firmly rooted in who you are, gracefully adjust to change, and find steadiness in your thoughts.

(EXCLUSIVELY TELEHEALTH) Mental wellness is a cornerstone of living a full and joyful life. However, sometimes life circumstances can leave us feeling overwhelmed and out of control. This can make us depressed, frustrated or overcome with worry. So often, our own well-being is the last thing on our "to-do" list. Maybe it's time to put yourself first by seeking counseling. Whether it's work, relationships, parenting, or any other life challenge that's got you feeling stuck, let's work together to explore what's working for you and what isn't.

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.
