You may feel lonely and overwhelmed with no one to talk to, I am here to listen. Let's work together to have you feel heard and empowered. Together we will work on finding you useful coping skills, addressing past traumas, practice making healthy and safe relationships, and feeling confident in yourself!

I work with adult clients who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, and general overwhelm.

*Start via a free 20-min. consult* You want a deeper connection with your partner but it feels so awkward to have the conversations that need to happen so that you might be better known by them. It seems they don't care about you. How to begin to change your relationship quality is overwhelming and it feels like you are stuck with a person who just doesn't get it. Your relationship lacks good energy and it feels like you are just problem solving together but not enjoying the best parts of life together - romance, sex, and closeness. Something's got to change you can't zombie through life together anymore!

Every stage in life, every situation we face, brings with it challenges, hardships and opportunities. The psychotherapeutic process brings focus and awareness to where we are now in our lives, where we've been, and the person we want to be. I see the therapeutic process as a journey that we take together. Whether you are an adult, adolescent, or family, my goal is to create a safe, caring, non-judgmental environment where you can explore relationship dynamics, patterns of behavior, identity, and opportunities for growth and change.

I am a certified holistic yoga counselor. I approach my sessions through body awareness, meditation, mindfulness, and journaling. The body is a powerful, organic machine that comes with its own processes to heal the body, mind, and soul. I want my clients to reconnect with those bonds to re-establish stability of the internal and external workings of the self, utilizing eastern and western philosophies. Principles I use in sessions are Ayurveda, Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga (eastern philosophy); Logotherapy, Psychodynamic therapy, and Humanistic Psychology (western philosophy).

You've experienced some form of trauma, pain, loss, or heartache. Maybe it was a long time ago, maybe it was recent. No matter how hard you try, the feelings keep coming back and you can't help feeling "triggered." You used to have goals and dreams, but lately you've begun to doubt yourself, withdraw from others, and become disillusioned. You've lost your joy and you're beginning to lose hope. If that sounds like you, you may have complex trauma or PTSD. This can lead to long-term depression, anxiety, relational problems, concentration difficulties, and hypersensitivity. Is this you? Then you need a helping hand. I'm here to help.

Drawing largely from the evidence-based practices of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), my goals are to help young clients gain an understanding of their challenges and develop more effective coping skills. I work closely with parents to help them better understand their child’s difficulties and learn how to best guide and support them at home and school.

You feel stuck. You may often find yourself feeling sad, angry, or irritable. Perhaps you aren’t sure what you’re feeling, but you know that something is wrong in your life. Maybe you’re not the person that you thought you’d become. Possibly fear and anxiety are holding you back. These feelings could be new, or so old that you cannot remember feeling differently. Regardless of how you got here, you are ready for change.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

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.
