You have the impression that no one understands you, or, worse, that no one will listen, no matter how hard you try to explain. You look around, and your circumstances have led you to believe that life couldn't possibly be more, that it was a broken thing far beyond saving. You keep thinking about past disappointments, pain, or loss and decide it's easier to keep everything bottled up inside. Yet, when you interact with your family, friends, and colleagues they appear to be happy, healthy and living their best lives. You want a better life for yourself and believe it is possible, but you’re not sure how to get the ball rolling.

I believe every day offers a new beginning. Whenever a client decides to seek support through life's challenges, it is the right time. Therefore, you are "right on time" for making the changes you need for a healthier, more productive life. Do you or a loved one need help to make a decision, move forward in life, or replace negative behaviors with positive ones? I meet clients where they are and work collaboratively with them to identify goals, determine solutions to problems, improve communication skills, enhance coping skills, and promote behavior changes that will lead to an optimally healthy life.

My approach is considerably different from standard talk therapy. While I have 20+ years of experience in various modalities, I find the deepest and longest-lasting transformations occur when mind and body are both engaged. I draw primarily from Core Energetics, a somatic (body) psychotherapy for this unified approach. I use movement and mindfulness techniques to reduce unpleasant symptoms, increase self-awareness, and resolve past hurts or traumas.

You keep telling yourself things will get better soon, but deep down you feel so exhausted from trying to make things work that you aren’t sure you can muster up the energy to get through the day. Talking to friends leaves you feeling lonely and inadequate; it seems they have it all together. How could they understand? The negative thoughts about not being good enough prevent you from truly enjoying your life, friends, and family. You keep hoping for a deeper connection-to be understood, and to feel like yourself again, but you just don’t know where to begin.

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.
