If you are searching for a therapist who will patiently but persistently work with you to meet your personal goals, I will do that. Entering therapy does not require full readiness to change; it takes a willingness to explore where life as you live it now might not match the life you want. Therapy is a collaborative process, so we will work together to identify your goals and plot a strategy to arrive there. I am experienced in working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, including LGBT.

When a person is struggling, I look at the big picture, not just "problems" or "symptoms." Through a strengths-based perspective, I try to see how the problem areas came to be, formulate a plan to address concerns, and actively teach skills to foster change. Through this lens, I have successfully worked with kids (as young as 5), teens, and young adults to address depression, anxiety, self-harm, OCD, ADHD, and other behavioral and emotional disturbances.

There are many complexities that can make the therapy processes overwhelming. This can be a challenge to navigate, and my goal as a therapist is to help you through authenticity and open communication/dialogue. Whether you're looking for processing, skills work, evaluations, problem-solving for everyday stress, or are experiencing major life events, trauma or any combination, we can explore your goals collaboratively. I believe in utilizing an integrative, client-centered approach that's informed through elements of systems theory, anti-oppressive theory, gender theory, intersectional feminism, and trauma-informed care.

Often people interested in therapy are stuck or overwhelmed by a problem they have been trying to resolve. Sometimes the problem is not even clear. Yet, almost always the goal is relief from the struggle along with a sense of some mastery over the problem. Having studied both philosophy and psychology for many years, coupled with my history as an Executive Coach, my goal is to provide a broad range of tools and support so that the therapeutic experience brings about relief and a sense of success.

I believe in working to understand people through listening, curiosity, empathy, and non-judgment. Gender, sex, and sexuality are all based on the individual bringing a uniqueness to what they might mean or how they show up. There may be a disconnect from who you want to or believe yourself to be and who you are right now. I am particularly interested in helping to close this gap, and gain a stronger understanding of the pieces in one’s life that influence and get in the way of discovering your authentic self. All your emotions serve a purpose and are trying to communicate something to you.

Therapy requires carving out time from our lives to slow down and reflect. This is an incredibly powerful and courageous act. In therapy, you choose to make time to imagine what you want...and take steps to create a life that aligns with your values. The human ability to heal and grow throughout our lives is awe inspiring. Healing starts with compassion. I look forward to working collaboratively with respect and compassion to support your growth and the achievement of your goals.

Is online therapy a good option?

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.
