Clients who seek help are generally looking for a wide spectrum of improvements in their life. I look at the big picture which includes, their personal happiness and their balance in life which includes relationships, family, work, play, personal health,growth, and spirituality. No matter their age or gender, all issues relate to their current diagnosis and life situation. Depression,self esteem, adjustment issues, and relationships are the focal point of every treatment plan.

Are you a self-aware person who, despite all that awareness, still feel "off?" Still feel anxious, irritable, or depressed? Maybe you've done therapy in the past but it didn't work for you. If you find that you are struggling in interpersonal relationships or with family dynamics, I could be a good fit for you. If you are ready to do the work, to learn to sit with the discomfort that change can often bring, I could be the therapist for you. I enjoy working with early and middle-age adults, first-generation immigrants, and new parents/postpartum mothers.

Are you feeling anxious, stressed or overwhelmed? Do you struggle with perfectionism, health anxiety, worry, irritability, sleeping difficulty, or depression? Is it interfering with your relationships or well-being? If so, you don’t have to keep pretending you are okay or face all of these challenges alone. I know it is hard to make the time for therapy, and we often prioritize others over ourselves. Society often encourages us to meet unrealistic expectations. Now is the time to pause, shift focus to your own needs, and develop new coping skills so that you can live the life you want.

I believe in meeting people where they are and value providing a comfortable and inclusive space for all. I know therapy can be intimidating, and I pride myself on bringing a healthy amount of humor into the therapy room while holding compassion and working through the trauma. As a therapist, I acknowledge systemic injustices that impact my client's experiences in their identity development and celebrate their uniqueness. I welcome all identities and am active in continuing my education and training to meet the needs of historically marginalized clients effectively.

We all need to be seen and understood, and it’s my goal to make therapy a space where that happens. I approach therapy from a place of getting that it's important to make sense of your experiences, know & feel that your feelings are valid, & have a way to move forward feeling grounded in your authentic truth. I often work with people who have experienced trauma in relationships and/or a lack of emotional support in childhood. I believe people make lots of sense in context. I work to understand the context of your life & work with you to find ways to navigate, cope with & heal from whatever you're dealing with.

I enjoy working with people who like to be challenged and participate in reflection. I have worked most of my 10 years with people who are diagnosed with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, addiction, pornography addiction, marital and relationship concerns, as well as moral injury, spiritual development, and day-to-day coping. I believe in exploring core beliefs and behaviors for people to better understand themselves. I believe a therapist should get little credit from therapy because it is you doing the work. This is your journey, and I am happy to walk alongside you in this.

The idea that sustainable happiness is an unattainable goal, is a tricky one. It's that thing we say to ourselves: "if I just ____ then I will be happy ...or if they just ____ then I will be happy." I prefer the idea of moving toward being more content. Isn't content what we feel when we are comfortable, calm, validated and without anxious or depressive thoughts that mess with our days? Often, if not almost always, we have traumas (big or small) and mean/sad/negative inner voices and thoughts that, if we process them, we can get to our contentedness.

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.
