You may feel like you will never find a therapist you connect with, or that no one could understand what you are going through. The pain of struggle and daily life, especially now, can be overwhelming. You may feel alone in this world struggling with daily life tasks. My passion is helping couples who feel completely stuck in their relationship learn how to communicate effectively, as well as individuals seeking therapy who need support to find themselves again. I have competency in all types of relationships, people with physical &/or intellectual disabilities, OCD and anxiety, parenting, sexual orientation, and addiction.

Have you endured trauma, grief, or other negative experiences that impact your ability to live with authenticity and autonomy? Has religious trauma, spiritual abuse, or other adverse religious experiences created feelings of uncertainty, mistrust, and doubt of yourself and others? Are you navigating the loss of relationship through death, sickness, or divorce? If you are looking for support in these areas, seeking to deepen the relationship you hold to yourself, process trauma, grief and loss, or are hoping to find ways to experience greater freedom for authentic expression, I would love to support you.

Have you had a recent "awakening" in your life? You’re not alone. You’re seeking to better understand yourself. Perhaps your feelings have felt more intense: anxiety, depression, confusion, or desire to find purpose to life is weighing on your heart. You look around - seeking answers, understanding, & deeper healing. Maybe a life situation unfolded and you were suddenly on a path you never imagined (job loss, divorce, etc). Or you have a health situation that isn't resolving, despite trying every tool in your box. If this is you, I can support you. I approach all my clients with the understanding that we are mind, body, & spirit.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often times self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others and felt empty inside. Instead of accepting my reality and the changing interaction between the environment, others and myself - I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change. Whether you are in a time of transition or a time of pain, I believe that we all have the tools we need to walk toward a loving and meaningful life.

Beginning counseling for the first time can be frightening. The journey to emotional health takes courage. Sometimes you don't realize your own strength until you come face to face with your greatest challenges. Owning our own story and loving ourselves through that process is one of the bravest things that you will ever do. Your courageous journey in counseling is a way to reach personal goals, reduce suffering, and get more joy out of life. We have an unlimited capacity to heal ourselves, despite the pain we've suffered.

What would you say if I told you that you could hope again? That your relationships with your spouse, your family, and your friends could be improved? That you don't need to be controlled by your fears and that you could find relief from worry? Taking the first steps to explore these challenges can be the most difficult. I understand how fear and doubt can keep you from finding the courage to seek healing. I am willing to walk by your side as you face the concerns that have kept you from enjoying your life to its fullest.

I help men and the conflict-avoidant transform their relationships. My clients feel so angry they could explode or so defeated they are shutting down completely. In relationships they often hear themselves saying things like: “I don’t know how it got here,” “Things weren’t perfect but I didn’t think it was this bad,” and “I’ve tried so hard but nothing seems to work.” Their inner messages often sound like: “I just feel numb,” “I get so afraid to do anything, whatever I do will be wrong,” and “I can never get it right, so I just give up and be quiet.”

Is online therapy a good option?

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.
