My goal in therapy is to help you have more satisfying and effective relationships, find a greater sense of stability and empowerment, and discover a greater sense of meaning to your life. Though the work sometimes takes great courage, requires significant hope, commitment, and strength, in my experience it’s well worth it. From the start, I work towards establishing a trusting relationship, communicating clearly and collaborating with you to make sure you are getting what you need.

When faced with a crisis, impasse, or other stressful life situation, we all intuitively seek comfort, support and guidance. We can usually receive this from friends, spouses, and family, and while it initially makes us feel better, it often isn't sufficient to resolve what challenges us or prevent it from reoccurring. Real and lasting changes are possible, but they require trying new approaches to old problems.

I work with teenagers and adults who wish to have someone to talk to about their daily lives or help them work through certain situations or issues. At the end of the day, I aim to be someone that could give back to the community and make a difference in an individual’s life. I would hope that my therapy sessions would be the client voicing their concerns, thoughts, and issues most of the time, and I would be present to ask more questions and try to get the client to dig a little deeper. The client has all the information and just needs a little push to lead them to self-discovery.

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. Therapy can be one of the most important tools we use to manage stress and improve our confidence and relationships. The value of having a safe space to share your thoughts and feelings can't be measured. My role as therapist is as an empathetic guide and as a supportive and objective presence. I provide feedback which is reflective, constructive and without judgment. I aim to provide you with tools you can utilize in your daily life, and with the understanding to help you remove unconscious roadblocks and reframe unhealthy thinking patterns.

I am a Mental Health Counselor, who has a Masters Degree in Applied Behavioral Psychology and Advanced Certification in Mental Health Counseling. I offer my clients psychotherapy with an integrative approach, utilizing different theoretical frameworks to individualize a therapeutic plan for every person, group, and couple I work with. I primarily focus on CBT, Person-Centered, DBT, Relational, Psychodynamic, mindfulness, and meditation, but offer other techniques listed below. My own philosophy is based on a holistic approach, so I do not always focus on diagnoses or pathology. However, I do recognize that sometimes it is needed.

Welcome. You may be here because you want to develop deeper insight, more fulfilling interpersonal relationships or effective ways of managing stress. Together, we will work to draw connections of past experiences with current challenges, access your unique strengths and explore and work through patterns that are no longer serving you.

Are you hitting a breaking point with the overthinking, but don't know how to stop? Maybe you feel stuck in your relationships or at work, but you’re allergic to conflict and are overwhelmed by the idea of change. Things like OCD, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, and relationship stress can make uncertainty feel intolerable. This can lead to anxiety that is high, and self confidence that is low.

It’s normal for individuals and couples to encounter struggles. Perhaps you've gone as far as you can trying on your own to resolve personal or marital distress without resolution. Your coping strategies are not working, and too often you feel distressed. You can choose to be proactive and get resourced by a professional counseling so that you can start on your journey toward change. I’m also able to integrate a Christian perspective for those on a faith-based journey. We can exclude this approach for those not ascribing to any particular spiritual orientation, I'll apply sound clinical expertise in a spirit of warmth and care.

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.
