The situations and symptoms that bring people into my psychotherapy practice are typically challenging and complex. Often overwhelmed at first, my clients learn to both work effectively with their symptoms and to discover their underlying meaning. With 40+ years experience working with men, women and couples, I provide a safe, compassionate space where new perspectives, encouragement and guidance are provided. As anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts and other issues are acknowledged, faced and better understood, the opportunity for both symptom reduction, healing and growth can occur.

It's time to invest in you. Life is busy so it makes sense to put off investing in ourselves. You've put others first for so long you don't have anything left to give. Then something goes wrong that can't be ignored and things fall apart. It doesn't have to be this way. Working on yourself is the best way to be more available to your loved ones. Therapy is deciding to invest your time, energy, and resources to improve your life so that you stop putting yourself in this crisis mode.

“Just stop!" You finally have had enough. Anger turns into shame. "Have I failed?” Days are consumed with worry, waiting for that inevitable message from the school discussing yet another bad day. "Will I have to leave work again?" Ending each day frustrated and exhausted leaves no time or energy for your spouse or even your other children. You thought it might be a phase, but things just have just gotten worse. You wonder, "why won’t they talk to me?" Feeling alone and confused, fear floods your mind, and you begin to wonder the worst. Watching them struggle and suffer without knowing how to help is just too painful.

I treat children with symptoms of attention and learning challenges including anxiety and sensory concerns. The modality I use is Developmental Movement Therapy and Primitive Reflex Integration which are Somatic approaches that focus on addressing the root of symptoms rather than teaching accommodations or coping mechanisms. Treatment sessions are fun, movement based and "home play" is offered to parents to as a way of engaging and supporting your child between sessions.

Together we attend to concerns and uncertainties, “what ifs”, and possibilities for enduring change. We work with intention to make possible the softening of stress, fear, or worry. We watch for the budding return of relief, clarity, ease, and hope. Potential shifts make possible the lessening of physical symptoms, as well as allowing for fear to settle; for intimacy, creativity, and inspiration to flourish; for thinking to clear and decisions to be made, action taken, and a deep sense of aliveness felt.

Welcome! Being human is a beautiful and vulnerable experience that doesn't always have directions or clear answers. It is hard to be faced with so many unknowns regarding health, finances, politics, relationships, and the world at large. If you are a highly sensitive person, you may feel raw to everything around you including sounds, physical touch, or even other peoples' emotions. Or perhaps you would like a more fulfilling sex life and/or would like to feel more connected in your relationship(s).

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.
