Choosing yourself is a difficult thing to do at times, but I am so glad you are here! I know in the beginning it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but through each session I hope that light becomes closer within your reach. While healing is never linear, it is something we all have the power to do, with the tools we learn in session. It is my goal to make you feel confident in your abilities and supported through each step and by the last session I hope you believe in yourself the way I do.

My background as a school counselor has heightened my sensitivity to the pressure children and teenagers face at school—pressures to conform, excel academically, manage emotions, foster friendships, and cultivate self-esteem. These challenges are particularly daunting for individuals coping with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other mental health conditions. I've helped numerous children gain the necessary tools to confront these obstacles head-on, enabling them to flourish in their academic pursuits, interpersonal relationships and overall well-being. I would love to help your child build resilience, bolster confidence, and thrive.

You're feeling overwhelmed with more demands on your time than you have energy to manage. Each morning you wake up and tell yourself, "Today it's going to be different," but by the end of the day nothing seems to have changed. Stress, anxiety, and depression have moved in, and it's hard to imagine a world where you don't feel this way every single day.

It takes courage to open our mouths and let out the words and emotions that terrify us, but that’s how we start to reclaim ourselves. It’s a sacred moment, when a client tells me “I’ve never said this out loud before”, yet there they are, spilling their pain and trusting me to hold it safely and carefully. It’s the moment when they realize they are not alone, that their story does matter.

I think "moving on” from life's challenges isn’t easy; it doesn’t matter what actually happened/happening... getting over whatever is going on in your life is just hard. I think “moving on” actually means you have to move “through” & I provide a safe space for that to happen. I’m an experienced therapist who believes some topics deserve a deep dive & others are better tackled with solution-focused coaching. Over the years, I’ve helped people cope, heal, recover & basically “move on” from the hard stuff.

I am passionate about holistic well-being, recognizing that mental health is closely interconnected with a person's physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects. I firmly believe that it is not always "what happened to us" that is the root cause for our issues and life challenges, but it can be caused by "what did not happen for us." I encourage clients to explore strategies that promote a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle, including exercise, nutrition, mindfulness, and creative self-expression.

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.
