I operate from the point of view that the client is the expert in their own life. Although we are called a counselor professionally, I would like to call myself an explorer or a park guide. Through my education and experience, I can show you what possible hikes you might like to go on or sights you would like to see while in the park. Ultimately, the therapy experience is your own, and you get to choose what it looks like. I am honored to be able to support you along the way and hear your story.

I have become very interested in the brain's functioning powers and how people can learn to re-wire neural networks, using strategies that can calm, relax, heighten a sense of personal control, diminish the power of old patterns, and strengthen healthy neural pathways. Research now shows that talking about what is causing tension, stress, or discomfort for you is good for your brain. It is good to find a therapist, a trusted friend or clergy worker to confide in and improve your life. I work with children of all ages, adult individuals, and couples and families who are having difficulties.

Lets talk. At some point we all have experienced uncertainty, confusion, sadness or feeling lost. A stagnant barrier limiting happiness, the ability to feel comfortable with our choices, trust in relationships, coping or overall self-control. By using a person-centered and humanistic approach with individuals and couples struggling with their emotions and mental health we can explore a journey of self -discovery. Utilizing the skills needed for personal growth, overcoming those barriers you may be facing and recognizing strengths, building upon new ones and embracing self-awareness, you can find the resiliency for a better tomorrow.

I believe one of the most courageous things a person can do is be vulnerable enough to ask for help, and I find the collaboration in the therapeutic relationship between a therapist and client to be one of the most inspiring processes there is. Clients come to therapy for a variety of reasons: the desire to change patterns (internal or behavioral), understand themselves more fully, or to process experiences, to name a few. I appreciate clients who are able to come to the therapeutic space from an open place, even when such an experience is laced with uncertainty or some fear. (My availability is limited to daytime hours.)

Attention is one of the most powerful gifts we can give. I embody this philosophy in my practice by striving to listen well, to understand you, to find the good that has been ignored or buried, and to name themes and beliefs that keep you stuck. I enjoy working with adults who are mired by anxiety, panic, depression, disordered eating, relationship difficulties, compulsions, addictions, or who are having difficulty adjusting to life circumstances. I am highly relational, meaning therapy with me feels like talking to an interested and compassionate friend.

Hello! I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, dying, chronic pain, aging, life transitions, and integrating altered states of consciousness. I enjoy working with individuals who want to gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their values, and their connection to others and community. Using ritual and ceremony as a way to work with challenging emotions and regulate the nervous system are important parts of my work. I am trained in CBT and DBT but do not strictly practice out of these modalities.

You are unlike any other being that exists. You are a creative force. You go against the grain and it might feel like you don't fit in. Society has tried to box you in for so long that you've pushed away and hidden little parts of your soul. You may have numbed your feelings and ignored your heart's desires as a trade for comfort, stability, acceptance, and normalcy, but this is what I know for sure: we all have an innate healing capacity within us waiting to be unearthed, seen, and nurtured. Deep healing comes from exploring and strengthening the connection with ourselves, others, and the world around us.

It is my belief that as we go through life, we all have choices to make. We can keep doing more of what we have already done-generally getting the same results; or we can decide to do something different and perhaps get a different result.
Most of us would love to do something different but we just don't know what that would be, how it would sound, or what we would be doing differently. That's where I come in!

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.
