Regardless of what it is, you know you need support. Congratulate yourself because you are already taking steps toward the support you and your child deserve!

*I am now offering Telehealth appointments* Change is hard. When you’re in the middle of a life transition, it’s easy to feel lost. Heading off to college or a new career, going through a divorce or a newly “empty nest”, questioning your religious faith or your sexuality are just some of the things that can make you feel like you’re not sure who you are anymore. Maybe you want to make a change but can’t figure out what direction you want to go in. We all need guidance sometimes.

My desire is to help my clients grow in wholeness. Our life's journeys can be unpredictable and uncertain. We can experience transitional changes and shifts in our perspectives: mentally, physically and even spiritually. I believe you can walk through these circumstances with grace as we partner together.

Empowering you to become aware of what you desire and give you the tools to reach for hope and health!

Though it can seem impossible at times, we are all capable of change with a little help. Therapy provides us with a safe space to vent and heal recent wounds, and encourages personal growth through self awareness and understanding others. I work primarily with adults and teens over 14 years of age who are struggling with issues such as mood disorders, eating disorders, interpersonal relationship struggles, performance anxiety, and adjustment to recent life changes.

As a Psychotherapist I have had an eclectic clinical background working with the geriatric, adult, adolescent and child populations in multiple modalities including, family, and individual therapy.

Are you struggling with a recent loss or death? One minute, we’re going about our daily lives as usual and then sometimes in an instant, everything changes. With such changes, are you finding yourself disconnected from the world around you, your family/friends, and the person you used to be? Many people who are grieving find themselves struggling to make it through the day, relating to other people, and imagining a future life after loss. Grief can be such an isolating experience but you don't have to navigate it without support. Let's work together to help get to know your grief and integrate your loss.

We all sometimes struggle with stressors in life. They can be big or small, but at the end of the day we benefit from getting some help. My goal is to provide a safe supportive environment where you can learn to challenge your negative thoughts and become more confident and secure in your life. Together we can confront issues that impact your daily life, from anxiety and depression to issues related to sexuality and identity.

Mend not only your financial wounds but your romantic relationships, too. Many couples seek counseling for their love life but often shy away from addressing money, a leading cause of breakups and divorce. Explore the unique experiences, situations, and life transitions that impact your finances and self-worth. Empower yourself, heal from narcissistic abuse, and unlock the path to financial confidence while releasing the burden of shame.

Whether you are going through a difficult life transition, struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or suffering from trauma, I am here to support you on your journey. I use a strengths-based philosophy to empower you to seek the life you desire. I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself can be a powerful agent for change, and that emotional safety within our relationship is paramount. I provide a safe and trusting environment so that you can learn to trust yourself and others in your life.

Here to help you tell the little one in you, "I believe you." Our brain's capacity to forget, minimize and deny past trauma is strong and protective. Remembering and believing past trauma is scary and painful and also the first step towards a life of healing. Your nervous system is the same one from childhood so let’s work together to increase your sense of internal safety and self worth. I am here to help you connect with your intuition and reclaim the parts of you that have been hurt. If you find your emotions either overwhelming or completely cut off, we can work together to create new, nurturing, life-giving patterns.

A graduate of Temple University, I have been a licensed psychologist since 1996. I work with a wide variety of clients and presenting problems including anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss. I have specific expertise in the areas of early trauma, childhood and adolescent issues, parenting and chronic stress. Throughout my experience I have witnessed remarkable healing and a return to a sense of wholeness and aliveness that comes with support through honest and gentle exploration, reflection and self-awareness. The results often manifest in improved relationships, judgment and clarity.

I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and couples who are going through transitions, experiencing symptoms of anxiety and depression, and/or who are troubled by substance abuse. I also see many people who have chronic syndromes such as autoimmune disorders. I have a collaborative approach and a conversational style, and provide a safe and confidential place where people can share their story. I see psychotherapy as an opportunity to develop greater self awareness and skills to improve relationships, and to enhance coping and decision making skills so that they are in keeping with the client's values and goals.
