The sun goes down and you're desperate for sleep. Unfortunately, this is when your thoughts speed up. You're constantly thinking. You think about how much you think.

You're desperate for a break from the constant anxiety, but don't know how to find the peace that you want so badly. I’m a Top Psychologist, Therapy Expert, and Mental Health Specialist, and I understand overthi...
My goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment for folks to explore their gender and sexuality. Perhaps you identify as queer, bi, lesbian, gay, pan, ace, trans, nonbinary, agender, poly, kinky, something else, everything, and/or nothing at all. You deserve to have a space where you can learn more about the different parts of yourself without judgment or pressure. As a queer person who has sought out therapy myself, I know how challenging it can be to find an affirming therapist. E...

Making the first call is sometimes the hardest part of the therapeutic process. I commend you for your strength and courage in seeking help.

Adjusting to college is a tough task, especially when you have other things going on in life. Counseling helps you work through the hang ups and figure out how to be as successful as possible....
I see therapy as a collaborative process. I try to help clients find what isn’t working in their lives and help them “try on” different ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. In a sense, therapy can at times be a “trial and error” where I provide coping skills for my clients and check in to see if what I provided is useful to them. I believe that the client is the one who can ultimately tell me what does and does not work for them. Although I make it a point to use evidence-based practices, I ...
