In my 30+ years of doing psychotherapy I have helped hundreds of people deal with basically two problems: anxiety disorders and addictions. Although I have worked with a broad range of people, I have particular expertise in compulsive sexualities - sex/porn addiction and sexual "deviations". I am the author of "Total Sex Addiction Recovery - A Guide to Therapy" and have been interviewed by major media. I use an integration of cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and psychodynamic therapy. My therapy is directive and I make demands of my clients. The goal? To live a satisfying, productive, and meaningful life.

Life is amazing yet difficult. People are always adapting to change whether they want to or not. These adaptations can take a toll on us which is why its always important to check in on you, yea the inner you, and make sure that "you" are okay. That is why seeking a therapist is top priority. I provide support for individuals, couples, families, and groups. I support all individuals and am an Ally for inclusivity regarding race, religion, ability, gender, sexuality, body type, and age.

Starting therapy is one of the hardest things one can do. When a person decides to begin therapy they are often at a point where they know something in their life needs to change, but are not sure where to begin. Departing from what is familiar can be scary. I understand how difficult making changes can be, and recognize how stressful it is to begin work with a new therapist.

I do not have an ideal client, as each individual encompasses unique experiences, skills, values, and goals. Each person’s therapeutic experience is personalized and unique to their wants and needs. I am happy you are here so we can build this experience together.

An effective therapy experience is one that supports a person in recognizing their own capabilities and potential, while using strengths to mitigate challenges. My hope is to assist you in cultivating a deeper understanding of your own intrapsychic road map and emotional terrain. I am a firm believer that every session should give you a piece of your own puzzle and over time help you gain the skills to navigate your own thoughts, control your behavioral and emotional responses, and understand your relationship patterns and conflicts.

Change, stress, and burnout are difficult things to juggle alone. At various points in our lives, we all need a safe space to identify and engage with what feels like it may be holding us back. Holding a safe space where clients can engage with their true, authentic self is at the heart of my practice and my work. Throughout this process, we will work together to identify your own unique strengths and needs. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, chronic illness and women-identifying issues. I am a body-positive, sex-positive, LGBTQ+ and queer affirming clinician.

I believe that the therapeutic journey is one that begins with stepping out of one's comfort zone and welcoming change. I make diligent efforts to create a safe space for my clients to openly talk about vulnerable topics. I work hard to build a strong alliance with my clients as well as a space that reflects my nonjudgmental and supportive stance. I specialize in working with pre-teens, teens, and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders, adjustment disorders, and suicidal ideation. I also provide therapy for issues that relate to family conflict, divorce, and self-esteem.

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.
