I work with adults who come in with a wide variety of experiences, though I work particularly well with people who want to gain a deep, compassionate understanding of themselves. I have specialized training and experience with people moving through grief and with people who identify within the Queer community, particularly gender diversity. As a Queer woman, I know the power of being seen for your full self and love to help people explore this part of themselves, seek confidence within it, and share their beauty with the world!

I believe that our relationships with others are an essential component of the human experience. We all exist within various systems, whether that is within friendships, romantic relationships, family relationships, or relationships within a school or workplace. These relational systems tend to be transactional, in the sense that we impact and are impacted by those that are in relation to us. As a Marriage and Family therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families in order to create not only individual change, but also systemic and relational change.

There are times when the mountain we call life seems overwhelming and the climb nearly impossible; of course it does, and now, we’re in this together. We will start by getting grounded at the base, making sure we have all the necessary gear, and create a space of non-judgmental curiosity about the mountain. If you have never climbed a mountain before, that’s okay, I’ve climbed many and have a large backpack full of gear; all you need to do is show up.

Therapy isn’t necessarily a lifeboat from a foundering ship. (Well, okay, sometimes it is in the short-term. That’s what sweatpants and Netflix are for.) It’s more of rewiring so that we realize we’re the expert of our own life. Together, it is my hope that we will move forward and you will start using the tools that you’ve always had…and begin responding to life, instead of just experiencing life as something that is happening to you.

Life can be full of changes both difficult and easy, some wanted and others unwanted. How we react and adjust to these changes can impact our daily lives. I find that everyone has their own perspective on life and story to tell, and together we can help you to express yours and work towards the changes you may want to create. I understand that everyone is unique and so I work collaboratively with each person to understand their story and find an approach that makes sense for you.

Beginning counseling for the first time can be frightening. The journey to emotional health takes courage. Sometimes you don't realize your own strength until you come face to face with your greatest challenges. Owning our own story and loving ourselves through that process is one of the bravest things that you will ever do. Your courageous journey in counseling is a way to reach personal goals, reduce suffering, and get more joy out of life. We have an unlimited capacity to heal ourselves, despite the pain we've suffered.

Currently, I am not adding new clients to my caseload. Initiating a therapeutic relationship can feel like an intimidating process for many people who are seeking mental health services, so I strive to establish a relaxed and supportive environment for all clients. This allows clients to work toward their own therapeutic goals in a manner and pace that makes sense for them. I utilize a combination of warmth, humor, compassion, curiosity and education to make therapy an opportunity to explore feelings, personal identities, and to better understand and strengthen their relationships in a safe and collaborative manner.

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.

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.
