These past few years have brought a global traumatic event to the doorsteps of our lives and hearts. Whether this feels new to you or deeply familiar, your story and experience is worth attunement and care. I am passionate about seeing redemption come in the lives of children and adults who have experienced trauma and loss. Events in our lives fragment our hearts, minds, and bodies, and we are in need of repair- both with ourselves and each other. I see children, adults, and couples, and I have extensive training in trauma and abuse. I see clients for a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, grief, and loss.

Sometimes life can bring us to our knees. When it does, I've found, it's important to have the right support system. Learning to look at painful experiences differently and live a value-based life can mean the difference between thriving and existing. Personal experience has shown me that a change in perspectives, and the development of new skills, can lead to powerful transformations.

OCD/OCPD can be exhausting. The “what if” thoughts, distressing, violent, or taboo scenarios and images that get stuck in your mind. The checking, redoing, and repeating. The need to do and be perfect, right, and best. It can rule your life and cause anxiety, depressed mood, health, career, and relationship issues. I'm sure you have imagined a life without these obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors and how you could be calmer, clearer, more connected without them.

Every story is unique, but one thing we share is a need for help. Asking for help may be the hardest part, but this crossroad is where change can happen. This belief is why I am passionate for people who find themselves in a fog, a downward spiral, holding deep wounds, at their wits end, or hiding behind shame. My goal is to provide a gracious place to process, build awareness, and offer a redemptive reframe that sheds light on all of life. Together, we will set healthy goals that will not only equip you, but offers restoration and hope. I particularly enjoy coming alongside parents, couples, families, women, teens, and children.

As a therapist, I believe connection brings about healing. Because people are so unique, I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach. Rather, I enter the counseling relationship authentically and meet my client where they are. From a practical standpoint, I enjoy helping people identify their attachment styles and how they approach the world and the people around them. I often incorporate techniques from ACT, CBT, and Positive Psychology, as I’m ultimately about empowering my clients to have the tools to live a healthy and thriving life.

I believe the therapy process involves forming a relationship with someone who you can share your innermost thoughts and struggles with. Everyone should be able to share their problems with a trusted individual in an environment that is safe and free from judgement. I provide my clients with an environment free from judgement where you can let your guard down and just be you. Admitting that you need help doesn’t mean something is wrong with you, it means you are ready to grow and better understand yourself.

The pressure to quickly achieve your goals have you overwhelmed. A few thoughts flow in and out: "I'm a failure", "I'm not enough", "everyone is judging me". You attempt by starting the day with enthusiasm. Yet, soon find yourself shifting from forced enthusiasm to doubt, shame, and restlessness. Your fatigue makes seemingly impossible to think clearly or address responsibilities. As time passes, you have sleepless nights, meaningless relationships, and self-doubt. Overthinking steals the slightest calm you may have had. Forcing yourself to 'do better', leaving no room to learn who you truly want to be.

This world is a broken place, and all of us are affected by that brokenness. Often, we seek to escape or cover the pain by pretending we don't hurt and looking to relationships and addictive behaviors to cope. As we avoid what's really happening inside, we can find ourselves struggling with depression, anxiety, and many other mental health issues. I look forward to working with clients who are hoping for a deeper level of healing and who are ready to do the courageous work of facing the truth about their story and how it has affected them.

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’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.
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.

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.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
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.
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.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
