My desire and passion is within our
tween
, teen, and adult communities and improving their mental health and wellness. My main goal is to assist you in having a fresh start and help prevent you from carrying (childhood) traumas into your life. I want to help you overcome any stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma you may be struggling with in order to live a more fulfilling life. Therapy is a journey and while working to manage through and overcome difficulties, you also get to learn more about yourself along the way.

Imagine your
tween
/teen uncovering their strengths and being confident at home, school, life.
**I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME** Your family has experienced a major stressor-separation/divorce, loss or trauma that has impacted your lives. Life feels out of control and scary. Your young child is having difficulty sleeping, is worried and struggling in school. Your
tween
is sad and is acting out. Your teen is angry and doesn't seem to care about anything anymore. You're beginning to wonder if you have what it takes to help your family heal. It's getting hard to manage your emotions and provide comfort to your child/teen. You've tried it on your own...it's time to let someone help.

These days people are experiencing mental health issues at an increased rate and need a therapeutic space to address their needs. I believe in working with both children and their caregivers to identify and address those needs. Children often struggle with mood disorders, behavioral issues, and trauma; and at an increased rate since the pandemic. Neuroscience tells us the best intervention is early intervention. Addressing concerns early in life can reduce the need for treatment as an adult. Not everyone is able to receive mental health care as a child which is why I also enjoy working with adults to improve their mental health.

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.
