My ideal client is someone who have or is struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma and self-esteem and seek to make positive changes in their life.

Fear, anxiety, and doubt block out clear thinking. This can happen to any of us. We can all have "personal demons". And as human beings we all react the same way, often retreating to the more primal aspects that existed in our species before reason. The "Three F's" emerge : Fight, Flight, Freeze, those primal responses to trauma. As these responses existed before cognition, logic and reasoning are often short-circuited. Before we know it, other priorities are put aside or forgotten. We are now "surviving" daily, rather than "thriving" and benefiting from full life experience, fearing we lack the tools to manage these obstacles.

My ideal client is highly motivated to make changes to improve their overall mood and lifestyle. My ideal client may be struggling with anxiety, depression, issues with emotion regulation, or may be adjusting to major life changes.

My ideal client has been trying to navigate life independently and realizes they need to speak with someone. They have experienced how navigating the world as a minority has caused them to have a different life experience from their peers.

My ideal client is someone who has a desire to make positive change. This is someone who is goal-oriented and desires to learn new ways of coping with their problems.

I am accepting clients ranging from fourteen years of age and older. I work with individuals, families, and couples.

For over 20 years, I've specialized in the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder, providing treatment to children and adults. I assist individuals with exploring and expanding their abilities in the areas of adaptive social-emotional development, self awareness, and confidence building to allow them to meet the demands of daily living. I work closely with family members in developing home strategies including behavioral supports, environmental modifications, and visual supports, that promote growth and independence. Therapy goals focus on the formation of skills that allow the individual with ASD to improve their quality of life.

Whether you are coming to therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, a life change, or just a general sense of unease, facing these issues can be scary. Healing isn’t easy because it involves confronting our pain and hurts. Healing can also be full of joy, hope, connection, and freedom as we experience new possibilities of being and relating. My approach is warm, relational, and integrative. I strive to offer a space where you can feel safe enough to look inward – to gently and compassionately welcome all parts of yourself with less judgment and shame.

I am a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania. I provide individual and relationship counseling through both in person and video sessions. My intention is to provide a warm and accepting atmosphere that allows the people I engage to explore solutions to challenges they face. My experience has taught me to respect the strengths of my clients. I believe in implementing a collaborative process. I have experience as a guidance counselor, psychology instructor and a board member of the Philadelphia Center for EFT. I recently completed EMDR training.

While I believe there is no perfect client, I always hope whoever I am working with is able to develop a trusting relationship with myself as their therapist. It is my role to ensure privacy is met to build that trust. I believe it is so important to remember there is no grade associated with therapy, you will only receive the support for trying your best. The benefit of therapy comes from being your authentic self and being vulnerable to allow conversations regarding why you scheduled therapy in the first place.
