At some point in life, everyone finds themselves “stuck.” You may be stuck due to a traumatic event, a painful life transition, loss of relationship, family difficulties or concerning thoughts and feelings. Feeling stuck after these occurrences can cause a number of reactions including depression, anxiety, grief, substance abuse, intrusive thoughts and memories, isolation, and physical symptoms. My goal is to meet you at your “stuck point” and help you through the process of healing. I do this by providing a safe, nonjudgmental partnership that enables you to create goals and make strides towards them.

Hello! Starting therapy can be a difficult process, but I am here to make it easier. My clients come to me because they are struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, OCD or depression, and feel like they are stuck and no matter what they have tried they can’t pull themselves out. They leave empowered, with specific tools that reshape how their brain, emotions, and behavior work. My clients understand themselves better than before and therefore begin to find the light at the end of the tunnel. They learn the steps and skills towards a happier, more productive life. I would love to assist you in the same way.

As of 12-13-22 I am not accepting new clients as my practice is full. I will update this message should that change. Are you tired of being told that you have a problem controlling your anger? Have you heard something like "you really need to talk to someone about your...?" Do you have difficulty showing how you feel in acceptable ways? I help those struggling with anger, anxiety and those struggling in their intimate relationships. I hope that together we can find solutions for the problems keeping you from having a meaningful life.

I am dedicated to providing my clients with an environment that is safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive. I work from an empathetic approach to allow my clients to speak their own narratives and explore what changes they would like to make in their lives. I believe it is important to see each person individually for who they are, instead of what has happened to them, and recognize what is going on around them and how it may be impacting their life. My goal is to help people recognize their strengths and utilize these strengths toward growth and change. Our work together can be as flexible or as structured as you feel comfortable with!

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.
