I specialize in working with college students and young
adults
who are struggling with anxiety, relationships, and/or adjustment-related issues.
Counseling is about growth and positive change. You may be really struggling right now - maybe you are anxious, depressed, or having difficulty in your relationships. You may be going through a period of transition in your life - even positive life events can cause stress! Maybe you need a little help managing the day-to-day stressors, or maybe you want to improve some other aspect of your life. I work with individuals in all of these situations, and more. We all feel overwhelmed at times! My goal is to provide support, offer a different perspective, and arm you with the tools to manage life's challenges more effectively.

I offer therapeutic services for English or Spanish-speaking older children, teens,
adults
, and families.
Therapy is about you, your readiness, and your time. It brings up a variety of feelings both positive and negative. It can be a roller coaster ride, but it is up to you to decide for how long. My approach is individualized and client-centered, meaning you are the owner of your story. Throughout the process, you will learn to prioritize your needs in a space that allows you to own your needs and the idea that boundaries are not bad, but rather necessary.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 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.
