Are you ready to shine? If you are ready to find balance and resolve old issues, like handling anxiety at work, parenting stressors, past trauma, or even sleep concerns, I have the experience to help. I work with professionals who are also parents and need work-life balance, boundaries, and help try to be everything to everyone. My clients appreciate my practical, honest, and approachable style that gets them on the right path to feeling better. I use an evidence-based approach to help get results you are looking for.

I strive to create a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to difficult experiences in new ways, and empower you to make choices about how you want to be. Together we build awareness, compassion, and understanding and orient you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it. I’ve practiced telehealth using secure video conferencing for many years because I love helping people get the compassionate and cutting-edge care they deserve. Even if they live locally to my practice, many healthcare providers, busy professionals, caregivers, and those with limited mobility find this a welcome way to carve out some meaningful time for reflection, healing, and rejuvenation.

I offer all of the same services online that I provide in-person, with the exception of comprehensive assessments. I use a fully HIPAA-compliant telehealth service, SimplePractice, for all virtual sessions.  

I offer virtual therapy using SimplePractice's HIPAA-compliant platform.

I work with men on issues including perfectionism, unrealistic expectations, feelings of uncertainty towards life, feelings of failure, low self-worth, self-acceptance, values toward life decisions, relational issues toward spouse/partner, social skills, anger management, emotional regulation, role specification/identity, fatherhood, and meaning/purpose.

ATTENTION ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS: Do you feel like you are never good enough and that nothing will get better? Do you feel like you are the only one struggling with intense emotions and that there is no one to help you figure them out? Are you struggling with how you look and/or feel about yourself? Do you think everyone else has their life together and you don't? Do you experience highly intense emotions that seem to scare other people away? Are you excessively drinking alcohol, excessively spending money, isolating yourself from others, having sex but immediately regretting it afterwards?  

Sometimes factors such as distance, time, and professional or personal obligations hinder you from receiving psychological services. Online therapy can help remove some of those obstacles so you can get the help you deserve.  

Our office offers telehealth therapy services, and has been doing so since February 2017. Telehealth includes any form of healthcare services provided electronically (e.g. phone, computer). Our telehealth therapy services are computer based. We use HIPAA compliant software to communicate with you. Our use of HIPAA compliant software ensures that our sessions are private and confidential. Most insurance providers allow telehealth therapy services. And many insurance providers have expanded their approval of telehealth services during these unique times.  

Although I see clients in person if you live close to me in NC, I am "authorized" to see clients through Teletherapy by PsyPact, which lets me work with folks in all PsyPact states. I see individuals and couples (who sometimes aren't in the same place!) on my platform, and there is an "ease" that I don't think people expect. My core theory approach is Interpersonal Psychotherapy (combined with CBT, Gestalt, attention to lifestyle, spiritual life and career). I use testing to give us a "quickstart", namely the MBTI, FIRO/B, and Strong Interest Inventory. I also have a list of "handouts" (You wouldn't guess that I've been a professor in Counseling Psychology, would you?!) and a model called the Interpersonal Flexibility Circle that I've developed to more clearly see concretely how relationships really work. All of these methods support our work and are teletherapy friendly. All of them support both individual and relationship therapy (even your relationship with all ages of your SELF!) I use an approach that helps people to rather quickly recognize how their "stuck challenges" and defenses have been "safety maneuvers" for perhaps their whole lives. How enlightening and empowering!  

I'm so glad you are here! I am a telehealth practice seeing clients throughout Colorado, North Carolina, and Oregon. Online therapy can sound weird, but don't worry, you can create equally meaningful connections and achieve amazing results. Plus you get to do it from your couch! I work to make your therapy as seamless as possible while making sure you feel supported and seen. I tailor my approach to fit your needs and goals from a trauma-informed and person-centered approach. I will walk you through the process and be with you every step of the way!  

I provide online psychotherapy services to individuals, couples, and families .  

I'm accepting telehealth (online) clients in most states via PSYPACT, an interjurisdictional practice compact which facilitates greater access to specialized care. I use a HIPAA compliant electronic health record in order to protect your privacy. We can meet anywhere you have privacy, feel safe to be yourself, and have a reliable internet connection. This often involves meeting in the comfort of your home, a (non-moving) vehicle, or your place of employment. I've found that online therapy allows increased flexibility/convenience and reduces time and resources spent driving to and from an office location. If you have questions about meeting via telehealth, I'm happy to answer them in our initial consultation.  

I have experience with anxiety disorders, trauma disorders, depression, and behavioral medicine issues. The approach I use is predominantly cognitive-behavioral in nature. We will identify distressing thought patterns and maladaptive behaviors to target with the goal of developing more helpful thinking and desirable behaviors.  

Online therapy is accessible, effective, and a service I’ve been offering since 2017, well before the COVID-19 pandemic.
