We all face difficult and often heart-wrenching challenges. As an emotion-focused therapist, I partner with clients through their specific hardships and transitions. This can include loss, divorce, empty-nests, bringing home a new baby, and other life changes. Working together, I help my clients find their own inherent strength and wisdom to encourage healing. My specialties include grief, depression, anxiety, forgiveness, reproductive trauma, parentification, emotional health for both men and
women
, and much more.

Life can be hard. Lonely. Confusing. Painful. As
woman
, we are called on to do a lot and to be a lot - often at the expense of our own health and well-being. When loss or a major life transition occur, it can become too much to handle. Overwhelm floods in. We can reach a breaking point. Are you struggling to function well in your daily life, plagued by sleepless nights, physical discomforts, illness, apathy … just going through the motions of living? Do you worry your relationships are being impacted too much by nagging bad moods or angry outbursts? It doesn't have to be this way. You don't have to do this alone. I can help.

Therapy is a place for yourself or your loved one to take time to build self-care, self-reflection, insight and skills to manage the symptoms they are experiencing. Many adults and youth experience symptoms of depression, anxiety or are overcoming issues of past trauma that plays in to their ability to go about life. Sometimes relationships, school or work are harder to navigate, build or maintain. Sometimes self-esteem and self-worth can interfere with our abilities to experience healthy relationships whether that is with friends, peers or family members. Coming to therapy can help you build skills to navigate these hardships.

I see individuals with anxiety, depression, phobias, dissociative disorders, and with histories of trauma, (including service members returning from Afghanistan and Iraq). I use EMDR combined with other client-centered therapies. What is most important, however, is that your therapy is tailored to your individual needs and does not follow a strict set of guidelines. Using a humanistic and transpersonal approach, we explore how longstanding beliefs and values affect how you feel about yourself and about the choices you make. We will identify and eliminate your "stumbling blocks" so that you feel in control of your destiny.

"What is within you that longs to come forth, what waits for you to say Yes?" In my work with clients we work together as a team to create a mutual, shared space of compassion, caring and healing. In this space, problems are explored together, losses and hurts are held together. Where there is trauma, it is transformed through bodily-centered somatic therapy and EMDR. I bring a wide array of therapeutic techniques, from ancient wisdom traditions to cutting edge neurobiology, to support your healing and provide practical skills for reaching your goals. Whatever difficulties you face - healing is the rule, not the exception.

From an early age, experiences within our families and social and religious communities significantly influence how we develop. As we strive to make sense of overwhelming events, we often grasp coping strategies to keep us safe and whole. Despite our best efforts, some of these strategies can lead us into distressing cycles of anger, grief, infidelity, sexual issues, separation/divorce or a general loss of sense of self from narcissistic relationships. Distress from religious or spiritual abuse/neglect may be coming to light. Add on a years-long pandemic and you may be experiencing chronic pain/difficulties or long Covid symptoms.

*Currently accepting new clients* It is not uncommon to feel stuck in unhealthy patterns that feel impossible to break. If you are feeling anxious, discouraged, and unsure of what to do, you are not alone. You deserve a life full of joy and vitality and there is no shame in taking the courageous first step in seeking help. I believe that healing can truly begin when we are in the presence of someone who is deeply committed to understanding us. When we are understood, we feel safe to explore our emotional experiences that often times feel too overwhelming to revisit.

My therapeutic approach views each person as an individual with unique strengths and challenges, and emphasizes the value of building a therapeutic relationship with the individual. When working with a child, I also want to build a relationship with the caregiver. Developing the client and family's strengths will be the foundation to support the change.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 United States, 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, 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.
