As an LPC in the state of PA I have had the opportunity to work with children and adults among a variety of settings over the last 7-8 years, strengthening my skill set to meet your needs. Our first session will be structured toward getting to know one another, while identifying goals and objectives you believe are important for you to target while in therapy. This will later translate into a more specific and individualized treatment plan that will set the tone for future sessions. Though I practice primarily from a Cognitive Behavioral modality, I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to support the experience of intense emotions among many mood disorders and intrapersonal conflicts. I challenge you to explore strength-based strategies to support independent growth and improved self-esteem.

I believe therapy is a space one needs to feel comfortable in, therefore it is my mission to provide that to you. I am here to have real, stress-free conversations, acting as a soundboard and listening to you and your needs. I am here to provide education, support and guidance in an empathic, confidential manner.
