Your experience -- of yourself, your world, and your suffering -- is unique. My primary goal is for us to come to an emotionally rooted understanding of your particular experience together. When this occurs, habitual ways of dealing with life's challenges can begin to make sense and become more flexible, leading to greater feelings of choice and agency about living in the world.

Schooled in both Eastern and Western psychology, I bring a contemplative, fluid perspective to the exploration of the human mind and the alleviation of suffering. Using a psychoanalytic, interpersonal approach, I help my clients make meaning from experience and expand their understanding of self. Together we find pathways that lead beyond old limitations and engraved patterns of behavior towards a life of greater freedom and ease. I am strong but gentle, and able to contain a great deal of distress.

Crucial to my work is helping people to find what works for them; it's not always easy to figure out the best path in life or in therapy. If I can't be of optimal help, I always offer other resources. I establish a partnership and offer suggestions of alternative behaviors to try between sessions. My goal is not compliance with the suggestions, but awareness of the experience of either trying the new behavior or considering it and rejecting it. Either way, we learn.

What is it that is so frightening about being vulnerable? Life experience, relationships, trauma, and loss often force us to harden, to protect ourselves, and to be anything BUT vulnerable. In doing so, we become disconnected from ourselves and from those around us which takes the form of anxiety, depression, body pain, and an overall feeling of dissatisfaction. In therapy, we work together to explore all of those dimensions in life that have impacted you and through the process, you find release. You chime into acceptance, peace, and the infinite strength of your authentic self.

Sometimes we arrive at a place in our lives where we feel that we are continually pulling on the ends of a knot. Instead of untangling, the knot becomes tighter. In a safe space designed to encourage reflection, we will unpack current difficulties and long-standing issues in the context of past experiences. All of us are impacted by our upbringing, and if we can begin to understand these experiences and how they affect the roles we play in the world, then we are at an undeniable advantage for improving our well-being.

The successful outcome of the work done in therapy is so very much a result of the unique relationship between patient and therapist. To that end my practice is one in which I am active, supportive and non-judgemental.Emotional injuries from the past live in the present, effecting how we relate and react to people and events throughout life. Psychotherapy has the potential to heal past wounds and impart the insights that can result in a healthier, more emotionally prosperous present. Depression, anxiety and relationship problems need not define us.

So you no doubt want to know the key things about me. Almost all my patients come to understand that they are getting a nonjudgemental empathic ear, & it is manifest in my unbridled enthusiasm supporting their tentative & often fearful efforts to move around some psychological boulders...and they come to accept that positive change is achievable.

For the last 20+ years I have treated adults, couples, and adolescents, epecially, who come with depression, anxiety, and panic disorders; the adolescents almost always present with adjustment and behavior problems. I treat psychodynamically and the goal is to resolve the psychosocial stressors and restore better functioning. In addition, I have researched and mentored with professionals about the human animal bond and I provide therapy for people who are living with terminally ill pets or are bereaving a pet that has passed away.

If you're like most of my clients – you are high functioning and externally successful, but when you slow down or try to relax, your nervous system kicks into high alert. So, you can’t stop. Your intimate relationships are draining and a struggle to maintain, but you can’t be alone either. You feel an emptiness and lack of fulfillment no matter how much you accomplish. You have tried coping on your own, but your triggers, as well as, your stress are getting worse. I get it. I believe that triggers are opportunities for healing and growth and that with putting in the work there is light at the end of the tunnel. Help is available.

I work with adults, adolescents, and couples. I am active in my work; I clarify for each person what is important to her. My orientation is psychodynamic; I explore past history connected to the present and open the possibility of finding out who you are, how you arrived here, and where you are going. Crises in development and transition are important, opportunities for change. These are good moments to enter therapy. Times of depletion or feeling stuck are also important moments to initiate change. I'm here to help. It is important that you feel I understand you correctly, as you see yourself.

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.
