I know how difficult it can be to take that first step in asking for help. It's okay if you don't even know what you need, as long as you recognize that what you're doing isn't working anymore. I'm here to help you figure out what you need and put together a plan that feels possible. What works for you may not be what works for someone else. Therapy is unique to each person and is driven by your individual needs, goals, and what we discover in our work together. Using your pacing and my integrative approach, we will find a customized treatment plan for you. I encourage you to include partners and family as support if you'd like.

Hello and welcome, I hope you find some of this information useful. If you are feeling motivated to support your own healing, free yourself from outdated ways of being or otherwise transform, I'd like to be a part of that process. Getting unstuck, handling difficult emotions, communicating more effectively, setting healthy boundaries and having options to work with intrusive thoughts are a few examples of developments that may come from committing to therapy. My work is collaborative, client-centered and trauma-informed. I intend to provide inclusive care as much as possible and I approach this task with humility.

We like to help people who are seeking to make their lives better, whether it's to save their marriage, go through a divorce without losing their minds or parent their children without killing them ;) Both our counselors are pretty laid back and like to "tell it like it is." You won't hear much professional jargon from us; We prefer to keep things simple. Our goal as therapists is to help our clients never see us again...we would love to get to a point where we no longer have people to help because everyone is coping so well!

My goal is to assist you to transcend suffering, to lay your secrets down and get rid of toxic shame. My focus for you is self-transformation, to like/love yourself and to be released from isolation.

My counseling practice is structured toward treating each person as individuals. When I treat people who struggle with eating and body image issues and related challenges with anxiety, depression and relationships, every person is treated with their own, individual needs in mind. Treatment modalities range from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mind-Body Therapy (MBCT), Energetic work using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Hypnotherapy and Subtle Energy work. Additionally, I provide individual, couples and family therapy for work-related support (including Career and Rehabilitation counseling) and troubled relationships.

I support families, adults and elders in navigating difficult times more gracefully. As we rush through our busy lives, we can feel lost and disconnected from our best selves. We can even become so immersed in our negative culture that we feel a deep sense of hopelessness. We can forget that we are smart, strong, tenacious and resilient. I can help you bring a greater sense of purpose and hope into your life.

It signifies expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of emotional and mental disorders based on advanced knowledge of human development, the causation and treatment of psychopathology, psychotherapeutic treatment practices, and social work practice as defined in advanced social work.

*Currently my practice is full. I will update my profile when space is available.* The therapeutic relationship is a partnership based on a commitment to the process of understanding, acceptance and transformation. My professional training and personal life experience allows me to help those who are wanting to make substantial advances in their life and their relationships. My hope is to assist you in gaining a better understanding of how you arrived at this point in your life often feeling stagnant. Therapy is about taking the time to ask the questions while being patient for the answer.

I enjoy working with adults exploring relationships, family of origin concerns, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress (and growth), grief and loss, and transitions. Each client may seek therapy for different reasons, often because something in their lives has become uncomfortable, unhealthy, unsustainable, intolerable – but each client is so much more than their problem. I've worked with everyone from high school dropouts to combat veterans to long term care residents, and everyone in between ... In every one I see another facet of the best of what it means to be human, and I love to show up and see what we learn together.

You’ve probably already read books like The Power of Now, The Secret, and The Four Agreements but still feel a bit lost. You wake up in the morning, trudge through your day, do your best to get things done on your never ending list, just to have it start over again. You ask yourself questions like: What am I even doing? Where do I want to go? What do I want to be? What do I even want to do with my life? We’re all still constantly figuring it out and doing our best, but there are things we can do to better understand what it is we want to create so we can start actually manifesting the future we want into existence.

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.
