Seeking some extra support is a brave and hopeful next step. I have been a clinical social worker for over 15 years, and I take pride in my ability to build a genuine therapeutic relationship. I bring honesty, humor, warmth, and curiosity to each session. We will create space in which you can feel safe to be real and vulnerable while digging in to those stressors and relationships that cause pain, worry, and confusion. I draw from a variety of treatment approaches, but most importantly, my approach is always client-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed.

I believe the goal of psychotherapy is to produce lasting and meaningful change that promotes flourishing and fulfillment in our lives. The fundamental mechanism for this change is the establishment of a purposeful relationship, one that is predicated on compassion, empathy, non-judgement, and healthy boundaries. This relationship is a co-created, collaborative enterprise that strives towards an egalitarian and emotionally corrective dynamic. Together we will explore your conscious and unconscious fears, hopes, and dreams to better articulate a positive vision of the future, and then work towards making it a reality.

I believe that it is necessary to address the physical and emotional aspects of one's self. Therapy is a partnership; it is also a journey that we will share together. I consider myself a very compassionate person, but in therapy I am also very active within the process. I hope that my patients will be open and honest with their issues and needs. Trust and honesty is the basis for therapy to be successful.

Life can be really amazing. It can also feel equally challenging and confusing. Work concerns. Relationship worries. Motherhood and midlife. A desire to feel fulfilled, but feeling overwhelmed instead. We often fear that if life feels hard, we must be doing something wrong. But the reality is sometimes life truly is difficult...and we feel it. For more than two decades, I have worked with individuals seeking more out of life, but who are feeling stifled due to difficult situations, feelings, or beliefs. Whether you find yourself navigating anxiety, depression, or a challenging crossroads or transition, I welcome hearing from you.

I currently have a waitlist of about 1 month. It's certainly not easy to keep all the "plates spinning" all the time, is it? We all get discouraged, distracted or thrown off track sometimes, especially when we have big changes happening. Counseling can help you learn new strategies to stay focused on what's important. I work with adults who experience depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and changes that come with age.

My focus is on you. More than treatment plans, insurance needs and diagnoses, the process is fairly simple: listen deeply and authentically to the many layers of you. The mental "illness" presented is only an expression of some imbalance or other, and commonly represents a "strategy" (usually constructed by the child psyche) that while saving your life all those years ago, has now become the central problem in your life. The first order of business is to shed light on this outdated strategy, understand it's contours, and then replace it with new, more powerful and relevant ones. This process, by definition, brings joy.

First of all, I view all my clients' presenting issues as unhealthy yet normal adjustments to life problems. These adjustments have become problematic and created symptoms in the individual and in relationships. My goal is threefold: "stop the bleeding," seek healthier adjustments and, ultimately, to build a quality life of contentment and satisfaction. My orientation is existential and cognitive behavioral, with a specialty in clinical hypnosis and its many valuable applications.

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’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.
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.

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.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
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.
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.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
