Life is hard. Relationships are difficult. Marriage is challenging, and life can be demanding. In the chaos of everything going on, it's easy to forget that life is precious; your life is precious, and relationships are a gift, something greater than any individual alone. You deserve focus, intentionality, and dedication. This is the basis for the work I do. You may not know what to do, and that's okay. If you are willing to do the work, then I am willing to guide you in it.

Hello, and Congrats on taking your first step towards self-improvement! My main approaches are cognitive and trauma therapies. Our thoughts, our beliefs, and even our inner voice strongly shape our emotions. When unfortunate events happen in our lives, we try our best to make sense of these events and what our lives have now become. As we adjust our thoughts and beliefs, our emotions have to follow. I combine CBT, trauma therapy, brief/solution focused, and EMDR. I work with traumas, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, toxic work places, toxic relationships, adjusting to changes in life, and low self confidence.

A Bachelors Degree in Human Services from Geneva College, a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University Pittsburgh, holding a Pennsylvania State Board License as a Clinical Social Worker, and my certification in Trauma From Evergreen can help.

Trauma can create a feeling within us that others won't accept us, see us or feel what we feel. It can leave us feeling scared, alone and judged. Life stressors can develop creating a mountain that seems too big to climb. Trauma can create a space where you don't have the words to describe what your are feeling and experiencing. You don't have to have the answers. Therapy is a journey of discovery and an experience of acceptance and safety. Healing occurs when we recognize where we have been and create new paths for our lives. I accompany people on their journey towards healing.

Reaching out for therapy is a meaningful first step, especially if life has been feeling heavy, overwhelming, or stuck. If you’re here, you may be hoping for better days and you don’t have to get there on your own.

You deserve to feel seen and you deserve to feel heard…whether it feels like you have it all together or like life is pulling you in too many directions, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I bring a low-key, nonjudgmental approach with a bit of grace and humor, helping you build tools, feel grounded, and move toward clarity, connection, and growth.

Imagine carrying an invisible weight—the weight of feeling unseen, unheard, misunderstood. Perhaps you’re navigating systemic barriers, microaggressions, or struggling to feel fully accepted for who you are. Maybe you feel out of sync in a world that wasn’t built for you, constantly compartmentalizing parts of yourself to fit in. On the outside, you may seem “fine,” but inside, you’re yearning for wholeness, clarity, and the freedom to simply be.
