If you're currently dealing with trauma or PTSD, grief or loss, chronic illness or cancer, you may often find yourself overwhelmed at times with emotion: anger, anxiety, fear, sadness, worry. You may feel as if your world's been turned upside-down, and not know what to do. Know immediately that your feelings are perfectly normal! Take a deep breath, and imagine what it would feel like to have someone walk with you through your pain. You might feel lighter, less stressed, less alone and more capable of dealing with life.

Not accepting new clients
Not accepting new clients! Seeking support and help is a huge sign of courage and strength! I love working with couples who want to have healthy relationships and are motivated to live an intentional life. I help couples with pre-engagement counseling, pre-martial counseling, communication, infidelity, eating disorders and addiction's affect on relationships and other life transitions. Whether you are experiencing poor communication, infidelity, or experiencing a difficult life transition, support and skills can help your relationship grow and blossom.

You have been living with the effects of trauma so long that it has become your normal. The reoccurring and disruptive reactions overwhelm you. The frequent mood swings, irritability and flashbacks are disrupting your life. Or you just feel something is wrong with your life but can't put a finger on it. You know drugs and alcohol are not the solution or made everything worse. You are starting to wonder if your negative thoughts and feelings will ever go away. With help they can. Seeking help from a therapist is scary. Finding someone you connect with and trust is hard. You are taking a giant step. And you are worth it.

I have worked with individual's whose lives have been complicated by anxiety and/or depression. Clients' lives may be constricted by self-defeating behaviors, or they may feel stuck in unsatisfying relationship patterns. This sense of not feeling satisfied often contributes to unhappiness and an eroded sense of self.
Early life experiences may shed light on these issues which often helps to explain why someone feels stuck. In order to effect change, therapeutic work can help a client counteract the feelings of powerlessness that often inhibit personal growth.

I became a therapist with the goal of helping my clients self actualize in order to lead healthier, serene and joy filled lives. My goal is not to keep you in therapy forever but instead give you the tools you need to be able to feel at peace and in love with your best life. I believe the relationship we have with ourselves and the filter we view the world through are key components that determine our happiness and satisfaction with ourselves, our lives. Once healing begins, the inevitable development of self worth and self esteem allows us to self actualize, feel at peace and live our lives to the fullest.

You find yourself feeling like you are walking on eggshells around others. You wonder if you are wrong, selfish, and insensitive and worry about saying or doing the wrong thing. You end up feeling guilty, ashamed, or not good enough when you are around them, which is sad because you want to have good relationships. You hesitate to answer the phone when it rings or answer the door when you hear a knock. It would be a relief for you to be able to be yourself around the people that are so important to you. You wish you could share without the fear of not being liked, loved, or accepted.

Often times, we continue to see our past traumas show up in our present life through difficulties like trouble sleeping, anxiety, fear of trying new things, depression, and feeling “stuck”. Our therapists utilize EMDR to help move past those “stuck memories” while also improving a greater sense of self and hope for the future. Stressful events can become stuck in our memory networks and like a scratched CD, continue to replay over and over again. The emotional impact of the memories is re-experienced every time they are remembered, because the flight, fight or freeze response is continually being activated.

Are you ready to expedite the healing process? Did you know EMDR therapy intensives can create impactful and enduring changes in a condensed timeframe? Meaning you don’t need weekly therapy sessions! If you grew up in an alcoholic, abusive, or dysfunctional family unit, then you’ve most likely learned to survive and make it through some dark days using maladaptive coping strategies (ie - perfectionism, second-guessing yourself, overthinking, hypervigilance, workaholism, procrastination). These adaptive strategies helped you survive and get your needs met. Now that you’re an adult, we can help you learn healthy ways of coping.

I offer in person and online counseling for women who have experienced narcissistic abuse, as well as EMDR for anxiety & trauma. On the outside, you look like you have it all together, but on the inside you feel like you are falling apart. You give 100% at work and in your relationships, but you still feel like you aren’t good enough. It’s been so long since you put yourself first. Instead, you’re constantly worried about even the smallest details and you’ve been focusing exclusively on others, bending over backwards to please all the people in your life, hoping that one day it will be reciprocated and lead to happiness.

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.
