You feel trapped in the weight of your responsibilities, overwhelmed by the endless demands of life. The pressure feels like it’s never-ending and you’re drowning in a sea of tasks. The exhaustion is unbearable & it’s hard to find the energy to keep going. Deep down, you know you're not living the life you deserve. Your ambitions feel out of reach, and your self-worth seems to be diminishing with each passing day. Wondering, How did you get here, What happened to the dreams you once had, the passion that once fueled you. Each day feels like a struggle, & you're unsure how to break free from this cycle. Wondering if it will ever end.

Toxic relationships, I must be a magnet for them. The hurt from all the disappointment is suffocating, and the constant sting of this new realization has became a hurricane in your mind. It shattered the hopes and dreams you once had. Leaving behind the remains of your broken heart. Now your memories center on the broken promises, growing mistrust, and all the red flags you ignored. That person could have been a spouse, a best friend, or even your own parents. You're struggling to find closure and a new sense of self. If only love and trust came with a manual.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Therapist since 1996. I primarily work with couples. My emphasis is on marital and couples related problems. I've conducted many work shops and seminars on several marital related subjects. These included: how to address poor communication issues, addressing conflict between parents and teens, stepfamily problems, and using the family-of-origin experiences of early childhood. I assist with recovery from infidelity, and cultural trauma issues facing men and African American couples. My focus is on the intergenerational processes within one's family of origin. I do not conduct disability assessments.

Are you successful at work, but unhappy in life? You come home exhausted only to get into another fight with your partner or maybe your child. They say you don't listen. Meanwhile, your mind races with worries about the future and your family. Work feels empty and lifeless. What is going on?? You know there's more to life than work and accomplishments, but you don't really know where to find that extra juice you're looking for. Is talking to someone the answer? People seem to think so – they've been saying this all along. Maybe it's time to give this inner work a try. But how?

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’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.
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.

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.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
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.
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.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
