If you are struggling with issues like depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, life stressors, self-esteem, or feeling "stuck," I am passionate for you to know that you are not alone. I am deeply committed to fighting stigma and shame surrounding mental health issues. To be human is to struggle with our mental health in different seasons of our lives, and no one is an exception. Feelings of shame can keep us from reaching out for help, and, tragically, can prevent us from experiencing the healing and vibrancy we so desperately desire. I see and honor the courage and grit it takes for you to be here in this space.

Stowe, VT 05672
I received my masters degree in social work from New York University in 1987. I practice psychotherapy with a combined perspective of psychodynamic, insight-oriented and cognitive/behavioral techniques. I see psychotherapy as a means to explore the connections between past and present relationships, experiences, and emotional states, for the purpose of creating life changes. I focus upon the relationship between therapist and patient as the catalyst for this self-awareness and growth, creating the foundation for addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, life transitions, attachment issues, and parenting concerns.

I offer compassionate, attentive, thoughtful counseling in the context of the relationship I build with my clients. I see our work as a collaborative endeavor that centers clients as the experts on their own lives and looks at problems as separate from people. I am interested in the stories of people's lives, creative responses to problems we encounter, and how our relationships with ourselves and others shape our sense of self and belonging. I believe in the healing power of the creative process, and can include the arts and movement into my work if that is something my client would like to explore.

Each person has within them a completely unique set of potentials that are waiting to be realized. However, we often get stuck in patterns of behavior that keep us from realizing our own potential. It is so easy to fall into a rut where we go through the motions of life but feel disconnected. I work with people who are suffering from mental distress related to anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and self-esteem issues. I love helping my clients figure out what potential resides in them and how to live a life that feels more purposeful and meaningful.

Good therapy can produce long lasting life changes. I approach therapy as a collaborative effort. I start with where the client finds themselves in the present. I listen with both curiosity and empathy to understand an individual's unique experience. In treatment I create an atmosphere of trust where together we can identify your strengths, find practical solutions to problems and unfold underlying difficulties that are obstacles to your experience of a rich and fulfilling life.

Not accepting new clients at this time. These are extraordinary times. People are stressed, anxious, not sleeping well, finding it hard to cope, overeating, or turning to other not-so-healthy habits. Therapy, support, hypnosis and coaching CAN help! So can learning to take better care of yourself (including getting enough sleep!) and improving your coping skills. And hypnotherapy can help shift habits and patterns that don't serve you. Please Note: I no longer work with trauma and PTSD.

At those junctures what we require is kindness, reliability, and time-tested techniques with which to navigate difficulty. I'm here for the person who wants to become intelligible to him/herself, to find greater levels of understanding and agency, in order to live a more fulfilling life. At the heart of the counseling relationship is trust and connection. Above all I strive to create a safe and compassionate place for clients on their journey of self discovery.

For the majority of people, counseling gives a sense of relief and hope, in part, by providing a safe and open environment to freely talk with an unbiased and non-judgmental person about what is going on in their relationships and personal lives. I provide help for couples who feel as though they don't know what else to do to make things different in their relationships and are experiencing emotional distress due to a variety of reasons from: communication problems, conflict, and distancing, to an overall feeling of disconnect with their partners.

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.
