I do a general practice, but especially enjoy working with young adults,
seniors
, and anyone going through a life transition, figuring out a relationship or two, thinking about careers and other life choices.
I am an experienced psychotherapist dedicated to helping people understand themselves, their motivations, their fears and their hopes for the future. I have learned in my work that at some point, all people struggle with challenges and setbacks, but also find it difficult to move forward with goals. Why this is, how it came to be, and how to move forward is the focus of our work. I offer compassion, patience and care in helping people work through threr personal barriers to a more satisfying and meaningful life.

I am so glad you are here. Finding a therapist is the first step towards your healing journey and I am happy to help guide you. It is my belief everyone is constantly learning and growing, sometimes we just need help along the way. We all have a life story and sometimes it unravels without warning or pause. Let’s pick up the pieces together whether you feel stuck, alone, overwhelmed, or you just need some guidance. We will work collaboratively to identify your values, beliefs, strengths & self-worth to create a plan to support your needs and help you become the best version of yourself.

People who come to me for therapy find a pragmatic clinician who responds actively and efficiently to urgent problems and symptoms, including anxiety, depression, and bereavement. I quickly help identify and address how present day stressors are affecting my patients' relationships at work and at home. My admiration for people’s strength and resilience guides my work. I believe a good therapist should be a loyal ally, an advocate for a person’s best self, and a compassionate believer in human dignity and capacity for change. My style is warm. My personality is direct.

We all share a common human desire to love, be loved, feel gratified by and successful in our work, and experience a strong sense of connection to the people in our lives who are most important to us. Yet most of us struggle with some or many of these issues at one time or another as the feelings we seek may be interfered with by depression, anxiety, or anger. Diverse factors such as our family background, economic difficulties, losses, life transitions, trauma, addiction, and physical problems may reduce our ability to feel good about ourselves and our lives.

I can be your person to talk to, your shoulder to lean on, your guide through life's challenges. My expertise, informed by 25+ years of practice and training in a variety of evidence based, practical and creative methods, helps people work through habitual patterns and unexpected crises. My clients learn to treat themselves with compassion rather than judgement. Released from these pressures they enjoy the freedom of personal choice and healthy relationships. We are mistakenly led to believe that certain behaviors will quiet our unrest; however what lies beneath are psychological challenges such as depression, overwhelming stress and anxiety, anger, panic, perfectionism and addictions.

My approach to counseling stems from the belief that we are all doing the best we can, and will flourish if given the right tools. I help clients take an overwhelming, undefinable 'problem', and break it down into manageable pieces that are easy to understand. That, in turn, allows us to target the factors that are contributing to the problem, and identify the skills that need to be strengthened. Whether it be anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships, behavioral challenges or another mental health concern, this approach arms clients with the tools they need to thrive after therapy has concluded.

As odd as it may sound, my goal as a therapist is to help you develop the skills, insight, confidence and peace of mind to not need me anymore. I am a dedicated Licensed Mental Health Counselor with expertise in strength based individual, family and group psychotherapy. I have worked with people experiencing sadness/depression, anxiety, feeling "stuck" or "not in control", recovering from head injury or stroke, and overall cognitive concerns.

Do you feel bad about yourself or the world around you? Having a mind cluttered with negative thoughts is exhausting, but we can work together to clear up some mental space. I support people experiencing the effects of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I'm passionate about helping people learn skills to think good and feel even better.

Someone might say HOPE is not an Action Plan... But it’s a Start. If you ask me exactly what I do.... I’d say : “I Specialize in putting broken lives back together again.” Are you living the life you want to live right now? Or is stress, anxiety, or grief getting in the way? Are you “in your head” a lot... ruminating about your relationships? work? the future? Are you having trouble getting over the loss of a loved one, job or pet ? If you’ve answered “yes” to any of these, then you are one step closer to your healing. I’d like to help.

I have extensive clinical experience working with people with anxiety, depression, traumas and interpersonal issues that interfere with effective level of functioning and overall well being. My focus in the therapeutic process is working together with my clients in an interpersonal, present-centered approach. Through this experiential, here and now focus, we work on increasing your awareness of alienated aspects of self that interfere with your self-realization, healthy relationships and overall well-being.

I work with individuals, couples and families seeking change. You may be challenged by anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, difficulties in relationships or the stressors of life transitions, such as divorce or changes in your career. Like all transitions, moving through stages of adolescence, into college and onto adulthood can bring stress, uncertainty and confusion but also tremendous growth. Our work together will seek to promote self-awareness and desired change.

With 40 years of experience, I am a results-oriented family psychologist treating adults, adolescents and children (especially for anxiety and depression). I have published 7 books based upon scientifically based treatments for specific psychological and behavioral issues, pioneering effective strategies for attention deficit disorders. My many media appearances include being interviewed on "Sixty Minutes." About 15 years ago I developed a sub-specialty called "Pain to Joy:" where psychological and physical pain or tension are transformed into healthy, joyful living. This approach combines psychological, behavioral, physical and philosophical methods. Most pain can be eliminated or greatly decreased.

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.
