“I feel lost”… “I feel like I don’t belong”… "I feel disconnected with myself"... “I’m not who I want to be or who I expected to become”… There is a rising recognition of the change and complexity of life in the world today. Our attributes that once appeared to be strengths are now often overwhelming and underappreciated. At the root of it all is trauma, which breathes into this life disconnect and isolation.

Anxiety is a common issue that can affect anyone at any time. Life transitions, such as the birth of a child, starting college, the loss of a loved one, or starting a new job, can be difficult to navigate. Stress is a natural response to the demands of life, but it can become overwhelming if left unmanaged. Grief is a natural response to loss and can be a difficult emotion to process. I want you to know that I see you and I am here to help you gain the skills necessary to help you on your healing journey.

Life is a beautiful, crazy, and hard journey. Having a chronic illness myself, I understand how traumatic and challenging it can be. My diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes was the worst day of my life. I've grown a lot since then and adapted to my new life, and I get how impactful chronic illness is mentally, physically, and relationally. There is so much more to you than just your disease and other challenges; you are not defined by your problems. There will always be highs and lows in life, in relationships, in simply being human. I will help you learn how to respond to and move forward with hard things.

What if I told you that your strength still has room to breathe? Even in the toughest moments—when motherhood feels like a storm, postpartum challenges cloud your mind, grief weighs heavy, or you’re simply experiencing the ache of feeling stretched thin—you are still growing. As a mom who has walked through these valleys and found light again, I understand how easy it is to confuse exhaustion with weakness. But here’s the truth: Your resilience isn’t meant to stay clenched in survival mode. It’s meant to soften, stretch, and root itself in spaces where healing begins: a quiet moment, a deep breath, the choice to prioritize YOU.

Life brings with it challenges and stresses for all of us that, at times, make the journey seem frightening and hopeless. Anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and trauma find their way into ALL of our lives to one degree or another. When we experience such times, we long for a deeper connection with our loved ones but are unable to find it. The good news is that we don’t need to suffer alone and there IS hope for healing and connection!

I am accepting new clients! It can be very difficult to heal from the various circumstances and people that life throws at us. Many times, we go through these struggles alone and may not even realize that we have yet to begin our journey to healing. As a therapist, I understand the importance and value in having a safe place and person to disclose, discuss, and process our life stressors and experiences with.

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.
