Sometimes life can be challenging either due to current events or past trauma. The way we make meaning of our circumstances is vital. Our feelings create our thoughts, our thoughts create our feelings, and both construct our reality. When we have the courage to face the patterns of how we think and feel, we can create a life full of meaning and value. Together, we can discover your truest self, your personal treasure, and your peace.

As a seasoned therapist, I bring a broad knowledge base about a variety of presenting concerns and approaches to therapy. I believe that effective therapy depends on developing a solid, trusting relationship, clearly identifying areas of concern, focusing on both insight AND behavioral change, and ongoing evaluation about what is and isn’t working in therapy. I am committed to providing a safe environment where clients will feel both supported and challenged.

Email is the best way to reach me :) People may enter therapy for various reasons, from anxiety, stress or depression to trauma. Others are curious to discover more about themselves to improve their relationships and inner self. Whatever your circumstance is, therapy can be the first step in an empowering journey. One way to alleviate common and uncomfortable emotions is by identifying the root cause and processing events using evidence-based methods.

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.
