I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship and family challenges, women's and maternal mental health concerns, stress, burnout, sleep issues, chronic health conditions, eating disorders, life transitions, end-of-life concerns, and secondary trauma.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, unlike yourself, or more emotionally reactive than usual, you're not alone. Many of the people I work with are capable, resilient, and used to handling life's challenges on their own. But sometimes, the stress becomes too much to carry alone. You may find yourself feeling more anxious, emotionally drained, exhausted, or stuck in patterns that don't seem to improve with time or rest. You might even wonder, "Why am I feeling this way?" It can be difficult to make sense of what you're experiencing, but you don't have to figure it out on your own.

I am a master level therapist working with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, grief, family and legal challenges, and life transitions.
People usually don’t find their way to therapy on their best days. They come when something has been lost, when life has shifted, or when what they’re carrying feels too heavy to hold alone. It might be grief, family changes, legal stress, parenting exhaustion, or the pressure of being a high school student in an overwhelming world. Many clients arrive feeling anxious, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted. They want relief, understanding, and a way to feel steadier, stronger, and more like themselves again.

Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
