You're not sure when it became clear, but somewhere along the way the relationship ended, and now you're left sorting through who you are without them. You replay conversations in your head, looking for the moment when things changed. You spend hours scrolling through their social media, even though it hurts. You see signs that they've moved on without you, and wonder to yourself, "How do I start over?" The grief comes in waves, often in the most unexpected moments. You deserve a space to process the relationship breakdown without a timeline. That's where therapy can help.

Therapy isn’t just about solving problems it’s about discovering what’s possible when you feel truly seen, heard, and supported. If you’re reading this, chances are you’re carrying something heavy. Maybe, it’s a deep sadness that won’t lift, anxiety that keeps your mind racing, or stress that feels like it never ends.

You are not alone, and you can get through this. Many of my clients come to me believing their feelings are too overwhelming, their traumas too painful to confront, or that it’s not safe to fully be themselves. Some have worked with multiple therapists and felt like they “didn’t get anywhere.”
My work focuses on helping teens and young adults overcome the barriers that prevent them from becoming the people they truly want to be. I have extensive experience supporting individuals through a wide range of psychological challenges, as well as guiding them through emotional growth and identity development on the path to adulthood.

As your therapist and the owner of Harmony Social Services, I create space to fully focus on you—setting aside my own judgments and distractions so I can listen deeply, intentionally, and with purpose. I pay close attention to your story, your patterns, and the ways your past and present experiences are shaping how you feel and function today.
Together, we begin to identify what may be keeping you stuck—whether that’s unhealed wounds, trauma, or deeply held beliefs that no longer serve you. From there, I help you move out of those patterns and toward a life that feels more grounded, meaningful, and free.

Life is difficult. There are so many things happening in the world right now. It can be hard to find someone who is free of burdens and turmoil in their own lives to talk to. Then there are those more specific things we may be dealing with that we cannot share with family or friends just yet. Counseling is a safe place to process and heal from most situations you may be facing right now whether it's relationship problems, job stress, time management or something more traumatic like domestic violence or a child who has experienced abuse. This is an opportunity to figure out how to start the healing process.

You wonder, How did it get this bad? The love you shared feels like a memory, replaced by fights, silence, and distance. Avoiding each other isn’t fixing the pain—and deep down, you crave connection again. Or maybe the spark has fizzled and you need guidance on how to ignite it in yourself or your relationship. Together, we can heal old wounds, explore new ways to connect, and even discuss intimacy styles or lifestyle choices that bring closeness and joy back into your current relationship, a new one, or improving the relationship with yourself.

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.
