I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor. I entered this profession because I enjoy helping people. Anxiety, depression, and unstable mood are among the most common issues people bring to counseling with me. I like helping people learn about ALL scientifically validated approaches available to them. Many experience brighter and more stable mood, better sleep, and a greater sense of inner peace. I also like helping clients achieve their personal and career goals. I have over 20 years experience working with adults, families, and children. I genuinely enjoy assisting my clients, and I especially love working with kids.

You seem to be good at everything *except* your relationship. You know something is off in your relationship, but maybe you just can't quite put your finger on it. Or you know exactly what the problem is, but you're clueless on how to change it. You don't want to give up, walk away, throw in the towel. You want to fight for your marriage. Perhaps there's be infidelity, perhaps many times over. Maybe your partner hid major issues or events, like debts or friendships, and now you can't heal from the betrayal and trust your partner again. Or perhaps you are the one holding the secret, and the shame is keeping you imprisoned in fear.

My clients come into the office knowing one thing- they want a change. Often having an idea of exactly what it is that needs to change, and sometimes just knowing that 'it doesn't feel right'. I help my clients understand that each behavior is understood given the context that surrounds it. We will focus on the things that are not that obvious, perhaps it's the mere emotion that is motivating the behavior. Other times we might need to dig a little deeper. Together we work towards the same end goal: transformation.

I believe that healing and recovery take place in the context of relationships, both with ourselves and others. I seek to help my clients understand how past experiences have shaped their approach to their life, values, and interpersonal relationships. I enjoy helping clients increase their self-awareness as well as identify and understand ways in which their current behaviors and patterns hinder authentic living. I believe therapy happens at your own pace and that people can exist outside of diagnostic labels. There’s a place for humor, kindness, compassion, courage, and curiosity in the therapeutic process.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

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.
