I am an intuitive trauma therapist specializing in the treatment of first responder, military and relational trauma. The treatment I provide is survivor-led and trauma informed. As the wife of a combat veteran, I have endured the endless gaps in a broken system that our soldiers and first responders with PTSD face. Our family’s fight to overcome PTSD and our fight to compensate for the gaps in a flawed system now serves to light the path I follow in working with veterans, first responders and relational trauma survivors in my practice. I am passionate about my work as a healer and I wholeheartedly believe in the power of healing.

How do you define good health and well-being? Stress, anxiety, and depression are part of life, especially post pandemic. At times life can feel chaotic and overwhelming for everyone. Knowing when to access help is an important part of managing overall health. As you know, stress and anxiety will always appear and reappear in our lives. Therapy may help you develop an understanding of how to live with stress and anxiety in a healthy way. Learning to change your relationship with negative thoughts, gain insight and awareness to unhealthy behavior, and learning to cultivate healthy thoughts and behavior are all part of the process.

Life can be joyful and fulfilling, while it also brings stress, pain, and disappointment. Often life experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed to the point that we find ourselves simply surviving rather than thriving. Loss, trauma, discrimination, relationship troubles, or simply adjusting to change can contribute to anxiety, depression, and ineffective patterns of thinking and behaving. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space in which to better understand your thinking patterns, feelings, and behaviors in a way that empowers you to effect positive changes in all areas of your life.

As a spiritual being who has embarked on a journey of deep healing, I realize that healing is not linear. It is a process that allows us to go inward and hug our inner child, navigate our unconscious, and acknowledge our shadow. Through my professional work in a hospital-based setting, I have seen the effects of developmental and generational trauma. I have worked with sexual abuse survivors, and individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

You're a millenial woman who tries to keep it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like a complete jumbled mess. You feel like anxiety, insecurity, and fear can jump into the driver's seat and take over at any moment. You can't imagine a time when you don't feel like you're faking it until you make it. But, some part of you knows that there can be another way.

I have been working for many years in a variety of clinical settings and feel very fortunate to have a commitment to a life's work that is so fulfilling. I believe the therapeutic relationship to be central to the experience of good therapy and thus strive to cultivate compassion and non-judgement in my work. From that vantage point one is more able to create space for one's thoughts, physical feelings, and emotions that might be suppressed or avoided or, alternatively, seen as defining us.

I have a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Massachusetts at Boston. I have worked closely with children and families as an In-Home Therapist, specializing in Art Therapy, Play Therapy, and mindfulness. Therapy can be a scary and overwhelming place and I believe it is important to make clients feel comfortable and create a safe space for them to share. I incorporate CBT in our sessions to bring to light how emotions can impact behavior patterns, but in a way that is not overwhelming to the client.

Life can be challenging. At times we may struggle to understand these challenges and how to make them better. It may be that a relationship has changed or the feeling of helplessness when we have a child that is suffering.

If you are struggling to deal with life's challenges, we can work together. You have the power to make a new choice today. Reaching out is the first step.

*Not currently accepting new clients.* Choosing to enter into a therapeutic relationship can be a difficult choice. I often tell my clients when I meet them that I understand how hard it can be to open up to someone who is a stranger, but that I believe therapy can be helpful to anyone. I encourage my clients to think about therapy as "something you do that is just good for you" like other self-care, spiritual, and health and wellness activities.

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.
