Psychotherapy is a collaborative process that offers hope for positive change and transformation. I work with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, marital problems, eating disorders, learning disabilities, ADHD (in both children and adults), and women dealing with gynecologic cancers. I specialize in working with adolescents, college students, and young adults, and I also enjoy helping midlife adults and those navigating the challenges of aging and loss. Most importantly, I tailor therapy to each person's unique concerns and needs.

At any stage of our lives, we may face increasing interpersonal challenges, pressures both external and internal, or overwhelming uncertainty. In the wake of these tumultuous, at times isolating, forces, we are often left with a fragmented sense of self or a persistent feeling of discontent. Frequently we lack the opportunity–or at times, even the ability– to articulate these experiences and to have them to be acknowledged.

There are moments when a life quietly outgrows the structures that once held it. A loss, a relational shift, or an inner turning has altered your orientation, and familiar interpretations feel insufficient. Insight has not dissolved the tension. You are not seeking correction, but coherence—a way to understand yourself at a deeper order. This work examines the inherited relational imprints, organizing dynamics, and emotional architecture shaping experiences beneath awareness, allowing change to be metabolized rather than reacted to, and supporting a more deliberate, anchored way of living and relating.

Coping with life isn't always easy but can be more meaningful with someone to share your hopes and dreams with as well as your challenges and worries. Sometimes changes in moods and emotions can seem confusing and even scary in both ourselves and in others and make us question who we are and who the other person is. We are always in relationships with ourselves and with others at home, at work, in school, in our past and present. What and who do you want in your life? What brought you to where you are today and where do you want to go from here? Who do you want to be? These and other questions will be explored and entertained.

Therapy is a space where the difficulties of living can be spoken, felt, and worked through. There may come a time when these challenges become overwhelming or your usual ways of coping stop working, resulting in depression, anxiety, or painful repetitions. My aim as a therapist is to accompany you through a process of finding your own language for suffering that may feel unnamable, confusing, or frightening. Over time, we will grasp at the roots of your struggles and open up possibilities of more ease, pleasure, and creativity.

My clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, unsure of themselves, or stuck in patterns that no longer fit who they’re becoming. I’m warm, compassionate, and easy to talk to, but I’m also direct. One of the questions I ask most in session is, “Okay, so what are we going to do about it?” I believe in giving you space to vent and feel, while also staying focused on helping you make real, tangible progress toward the life you want to build.

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’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.

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.

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.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

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.

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.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
