These are difficult and destabilizing times, and many of our lives, and our ways of being in the world, have been changed in profound ways. With nearly 20 years of experience I provide compassionate and collaborative individual psychotherapy to pre-teens, adolescents and
adults
. Historically I have worked with a diverse clientele throughout all stages of life and with predominantly marginalized communities.

As we go through life we are exposed to innumerable experiences, both positive and negative, that determine the way we will feel about ourselves and how we chose to live our lives. Undoing the effect of the traumas we experience, big and small, requires much courage and self-awareness. With over 20 years of experience, I see myself as a therapist with whom you can feel safe to explore the deepest and most troubling aspects of your life, within an environment of acceptance and respect. I work with
adults
and couples in their search for a more fulfilling life.

I always take family history as it isn't unusual for our developmental years inform who we become as
adults
.
I am a psychotherapist with 35+ years of experience. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is unique. This uniqueness develops when a person knows there is confidentiality and can safely talk about anxieties, sadness, loss and whatever is interfering with the person they wish to be. I have always felt clients personal problems are not the insurance companies business. Due to my experience I do not accept insurance and payment is out of pocket. Years ago before the pandemic I responded to a post from a therapist stating skype sessions were as beneficial as in-person sessions. The pandemic forced online sessions

I have experience working with children, teens and
adults

Our lives are often in a state of flux and such transitions can be painful and confusing. Our minds and bodies tend to hold onto past events and hardships, which make us more vulnerable to future experiences of stress. Therapy provides a safe space to explore past and present experiences that have resulted in unwanted thoughts, feelings, or symptoms. By putting words to our inner worlds and lived experiences we can find greater relief and satisfaction in life. Insight and self-awareness are the agents of change and growth. Together we will embark on a collaborative search for greater understanding while I provide you with hope.

As a clinical psychologist with over 35 years of experience, I help
adults
, couples and families, by integrating many different therapeutic approaches.
Conflict can come from within, due to our experiences and struggles, and it can come from our relationships with others. It can lead to disintegration of relationships with our partners and our children, and even in how we view ourselves. Strengthening emotional connection and intimacy can help repair fractures, increase compassionate understanding, and build closeness. Even parents who are divorced can improve their relationships by learning to communicate in respectful child-centered ways. Focusing on positive growth, shifting well-engrained patterns, and building greater self-acceptance can create lasting change and happiness.

Choosing a psychotherapist is rarely an easy decision. Can I trust this person? Will she be able to help and understand me? I believe that feeling respected and heard is the first step in a therapist-patient relationship. It is a necessary prerequisite to meaningful change in a person's life.
People come to me with many concerns that can rob them of optimism and hope, and leave them feeling anxious,worried, alone,sad or frightened. I work to help people overcome obstacles, to value themselves more, and to help them find meaning and connection.

Is online therapy a good option?

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.
