My clients tend to be intelligent and insightful individuals who come to work with me because they suffer from despair and disorder. They have tried to resolve their troubles and cope with their uneasiness for a long time--often partly successfully, and against strong odds--but they have reached a point where they want extra support and insight in order to finally transform their suffering into meaningfulness and growth. With consistency, dedication, patience and focus, I help my clients achieve deep and lasting emotional transformation.

A large part of my practice is inclusive of conducting (neuro)psychological evaluations. Typical presenting problems include concerns about attention/ADHD, learning, trauma/PTSD, depression, anxiety, memory, disruptive behavior, hyperactivity, social interactions/Autism, dementia, neurobehavioral disorders, traumatic brain injury, and cognitive impairments among others. Evaluations assist with diagnosing, offering treatment recommendations, noting progress and current level of functioning, assisting with getting school-related help, recommendations for guardianship, etc. I also offer therapeutic services. I believe that developing a deeper understanding of oneself is important so individuals can become free to embrace their inner strengths, solidify their belief systems, and reach their greatest potential.

I am passionate about helping those who are introspective, emotionally-inclined, and curious. I care about helping clients move beyond the surface in therapy to reach a deeper level of truth that they haven't yet spoken. Too often, therapy glosses over the fact that, at times, life is painful and messy. As much as we might want to avoid this, I strive to remind clients that we are better off trying to embrace this, and we might be surprised by what comes from doing so.

A queer and anti-patriarchal therapist, I practice sex therapy, individual therapy, and couples therapy in southeastern Wisconsin. I help clients ages 16-70 with issues in individual mental health, sex and sexuality, relationships, and family dynamics. Using a radically body- and sex-positive approach, I help people with sexual concerns including sexual pain, desire and arousal issues, out of control sexual behavior, difficulty with orgasm, healthy sex after trauma, polyamory, swinging, kink, gender & orientation discovery. Cultural humility and racial justice are very important to me. Health at Every Size aligned.

I primarily practice Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based treatment rooted in the idea that many of our normal, common-sense attempts to change or eliminate unwanted thoughts and feelings actually increase our suffering, keep us stuck, and prevent us from fully living. I provide a safe and compassionate space in which to learn to respond to these difficult experiences in new ways that free you up to do what you care about most deeply. We will explore your internal and external worlds, clarify your values and goals, and learn practical skills to help you pursue them.

I have been providing therapy for over 30 years, specializing in treating anxiety, panic attacks, post traumatic stress disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, relationship issues and individuals with disabilities.
Life provides us with numerous challenges and struggles, however, I have found that we have the ability to create many do-overs during our life-time. Therapy is a great way to create change, learn self-acceptance and heal.

Many of us struggle daily with issues like anxiety, stress, depression, anger or just feeling misunderstood. We may feel stuck and ashamed at our inability to just will ourselves into being "better". This internal suffering is so common, but the good news is we all possess an internal capacity for change. It hurts to feel "stuck", but making changes can also be hard to do on our own. I have years of experience working with folks with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, addiction, stress and other personal challenges. I am specially trained and committed to supporting clients in the LGBTQ community and immigrant populations.

Normal is a setting on a dryer. We are all unique and valid individuals with vast minds. We all have different situations and I believe in using those pieces to heal and build strength. While I specialize in trauma, addiction, and mood, our struggles are usually not that one note or simple. I focus on all aspects of who you and where you want to be, building a strong relationship based on empathy, trust and non judgement. Life is rough, we lose sight of our way, stop seeing the beauty, forget who we are, feel stuck or changed. It takes courage to be vulnerable and reality is we are imperfectly perfect.

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.
