I am particularly focused on
stress
management and the use of hypnosis and mindfulness to aid individuals in increasing relaxation,reducing pain and anxiety as well as improving satisfaction with themselves and the life choices they are making.
People come to treatment for a variety of reasons.I view each person as unique and strive to assist individuals to overcome challenges and meet the goals that are important in their lives. As we work to let go of behaviors, thoughts and feelings that are not useful in the present, new healthier patterns can emerge and be adopted.

i help clients manage
stress
and examine the beliefs that keep them from being happy. once the beliefs are identified and valued, the client and i work together to re-frame the experiences that lead to the beliefs. my work is to help the client see the experiences as an asset instead of a liability to the client's growth. seen this way, the experiences become progress toward happiness instead of a hindrance.

Finding a new therapist or beginning therapy for the first time can bring up a lot- nervousness, excitement, relief, exhaustion... so much more. Let's see if we might be a good fit and ease some of the
stress
you may be holding. I specialize in working with adults and emerging adults from racial, ethnic, social, financial, sexual, and gender diverse backgrounds who have experience living within systems that were not set up for them to succeed. Instead of pathologizing depression, anxiety, loneliness, unworthiness, guilt, and shame, we will look at the strengths in your survival and explore what is and is not serving you.

Stress
is a normal part of life that we cannot escape; it is a natural response to strain. But, when left unmanaged, constant
stress
can make daily living difficult and, at times, even unbearable. In that stage, life may feel like you are carrying a weight that becomes heavier with each passing day. Have you experienced this feeling? Has
stress
had a significant impact on your emotional or physical health? Are you experiencing imbalances such as excessive worrying, mood changes or inability to sleep or rest? If so, you could benefit from therapeutic
stress
management.

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.
