The relationships in your life seem increasingly difficult to manage. Maybe the relationship with one or both your parents is challenging, or your interactions with your intimate partner continues to become more complicated. You feel that the emotional energy and time you have put into the relationship has left you exhausted. Or maybe you find it difficult to find meaningful connections with your peers. You’ve struggled with your relationships your whole life or it’s a new challenge after a big move or transition. Regardless of the reason, you feel disconnected, lonely, and anxious.

I specialize in working with women who work really hard to make sure everything looks okay on the outside when it doesn’t feel that way on the inside. Clients who come to me are often overwhelmed with pressure to get things perfect and struggle with feeling “enough”, some experiencing imposter syndrome. They often feel an imbalance in their lives and are quick to sacrifice self-care for others or in the face of stress. They feel their emotions strongly and sometimes feel controlled by them, leaving them often emotionally and physically drained. My clients are ready to create change in their lives & feel more peace of mind.

My clients desire to appear confident and in control, but deep down they are quietly struggling to keep it together. They may be fed up with being everyone's "rock", feeling riddled with frustration and anxiety, or wondering who they are outside of all the "hats" being worn. They may not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. One thing is for sure: they're ready for relief. They come ready to release the things that they've been holding in. They're ready to unhook from the cycle of burnout, numb out, repeat. Most of all, they're ready to step into an authentic relationship with themselves, life & those around them.

An integral part of recovery is therapy. Creating an environment where you feel comfortable and safe is very important in the therapeutic process.

We are always reaching to be the best in all we do. This often times causes pressure as we try to meet standards other have set. We often feel that we are failures. Sometimes you may be pushed to bring the experiences of others into your life and that does not work. Have you set you own personal goals? Do you utilize the skills that are innate? Do you feel lost or abandoned? How is your self esteem? Are you interested in trying something new? Are you ready to overcome fears? Did you know that you are gifted and equipped?

Do you need to learn how to be kinder to yourself? To heal from past hurts? To find a new perspective on your issues (with a solution-focus)? Do you want to be gently nudged out of your comfort zone to meet your personal goals? Do you want someone to just listen to you and help you process everything you're going through? If you answered "yes" to one or more of these, we might be a great fit! It's important for clients to feel comfortable with their therapist, and my experience has shown me that people with these needs have benefited greatly from our sessions.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 United States, 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, 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.
