Life changes, transitions and losses are universal experiences that can often feel isolating and impossible to manage. I feel passionate about working with individuals who are feeling stuck while moving through change. My approach is to gently co-creating a non-judgemental, therapeutic space that allows for authenticity, honesty and self-compassion. Our behaviors, reactions and beliefs about ourselves and others are often very valid responses we have learned and cultivated to survive in this world.

Sometimes life feels unsettled—after a loss, a major transition, or when old struggles keep resurfacing. You may be carrying anxiety, depression, grief, or the lingering impact of trauma. At other times, it can feel less clear, more like something inside is “off” or holding you back. What unites many people I work with is the wish not only for relief, but for a deeper understanding of themselves and a more authentic way of living. Even if the exact shape of that change isn’t yet clear, therapy can be a space to begin exploring what might be possible.

As a clinical psychologist I work with clients who are attempting to change unrewarding or isolating patterns of relating to others, or struggling to modify unproductive thoughts or feelings. The process of therapy as I practice it relies on developing a trusting and collaborative relationship between client and therapist. It is in this atmosphere of support, encouragement and respect that areas of concern and patterns of behavior can be understood and changed.
I work with both individuals and couples. I have advanced training in treating depression, helping couples work productively in relationships, modification of addictive behaviors, and cognitive assessment.

The clients I work with often come in wondering, "Why am I blocked/stuck? What am I doing wrong? Why does this keep happening to me? Something needs to change, but I'm not sure how to." Beneath many of these challenges is a deep longing to feel seen, understood, and securely connected. You may be navigating fears of rejection or abandonment, experiences of shame, loss of identity, recurring cycles of conflict and disconnection, or a sense of loneliness, even when surrounded by others. My role is to help you slow down and make sense of what's underneath these patterns, so you can build more honest, caring, and secure relationships.

Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
