Lately, it just doesn’t feel like you can catch a break. It’s one thing after another and you realize you are far down a path you never imagined for yourself. Life can be so unpredictable! It puts you in a place of questioning yourself and it seeps into other areas of your life. That’s why you are here! You may have a tiny bit of perfectionism and often hold yourself to high standards. On the outside you might look like you’re solid and have it all together, but on the inside, you’re feeling lost, not yourself, and you're losing sight of your purpose or direction.

Whether you're looking for support for yourself or someone else, this is an important first step in figuring out who you can trust. It's not a simple decision and reading a profile is only a slight glimpse into who I am as a provider. I get it. In a way you're taking a trust fall into the universe and you're hoping the right person is there to catch you so you don't thump to the ground. I'm far better at catching others before they fall than myself. Nicknamed "Crash Gordon" when I worked at FCPS, I was known for losing my balance occasionally but never losing track of a student, staff, or family need. Everyone is safe with me!

Congratulations on taking the first step toward a major life change! The decision to begin counseling is an immense gesture of self love and courage. Finding the right fit is so important to the therapeutic process. Whatever brings you here - the loss of a loved one, a major life transition, troubling relationship patterns, chronic illness or pain, or feeling stuck and confused about the future - will be explored with openness, curiosity, and acceptance. Things can feel easier, when explored without shame or judgment. I believe that we all have the innate ability to heal with the right connection and understanding.

This is an accelerated solution-focused type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy used to create long lasting results as fast as possible. Modern Psychological Services only uses medically validated treatment to reduce symptoms usually within 8 to 10 sessions. Obviously some cases take much longer. During cognitive training, you will develop your own toolbox of mental and emotional techniques making future stress easier to deal with. In the end, you will gain independence from therapy as your psychology becomes self-sufficient and your emotions self-regulate.

Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, and stuck in your own head? Do you struggle with feelings of not being enough, feeling lost, or just going through the motions of daily life? Many of us go through our days feeling numb and disconnected or struggle with anxious and low moods. Unfortunately, in these overly busy and stress filled times, the loss of joy and vitality is all too common. When things are hectic and we are just trying to get through the day, it is easy to lose sight of our true values and our lives can veer off course, leaving us feeling empty and lost.

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.
