That part of you that is causing so much external (or internal) destruction is just trying to help–hear me out! Sometimes, it is a knee-jerk reaction to blame or shame yourself for the negative ways that you show up in your life. Instead of dwelling on, “what the hell is wrong with me?” let me help you explore questions like, “what positive intent does it have for me?” or, “how does it try to protect me?” and, “what is it trying to protect me from?” Sometimes that devil on our shoulder really does have good intentions despite the undesirable impact. It can affect our personal, romantic, and even our work relationships.

After any type of loss, trauma, or incredibly difficult times, it can be difficult to find out balance again, to figure out what we need or want. It's hard to trust ourselves and to stand up for what we want and need. I believe in helping clients look inward to ourselves to learn to trust ourselves again, to find what we need. I believe in providing people with the space to grieve, to heal, and discover what it is they want in life.

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health! Life can be stressful, unpredictable, chaotic, frustrating, and constantly throwing us curve balls. Sometimes we just need help processing our thoughts and feelings or making important life decisions. Other times, we may be struggling with mental illness, substance use, grief and loss, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, identity issues or other serious problems that are keeping us from living a happy and productive life. During these times, reaching out for help may feel scary or embarrassing.

Do you sometimes feel things are overwhelming or too much has happened, so it’s hard visualizing things getting better? Do you sometimes find yourself turning to unhealthy coping skills to help fill voids which only seems to bring about a temporary release, emptiness or more stress? Some things we can not control which can cause tension in our lives, however, I feel we can learn to better manage how we respond and react to situations. I believe in order for true healing to begin, we must first be willing to be open and honest with ourselves. Within all of us lies hope, strength, the need for connection, and being understood.

"Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?" -Charles Bukowski-- Society places so many pressures on us. The pressure to be successful, put- together, kind, ambitious, and stable, to name a few. But how do we define them? They become so arbitrary, making them difficult to achieve. So we fall short. We believe we fail. And in comes the negative self talk. In comes the fear. In comes the shame. Therapy can be beneficial to break those cycles of negative self talk and shame. It can be beneficial to explore beliefs and values, and letting those drive who you were meant to be.

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.
