Do you feel like you are continually battling uphill due to depression, anxiety, trauma, or sexual addiction issues and it seems like nothing you do helps? Do you have childhood issues that keep seem to always be coming back to haunt you or your relationships? If so, I can help you by showing you how to recover from these to help unlock energy that gets trapped inside yourself and help you be a the most functional person you can. I use a combination of methods to help get your brain and mind to work for you rather than against you, and am a certified EMDR practitioner.

The clients I aim to serve, are the ones who feel or have felt defeated by life and it’s circumstances. Clients who feel as though they have no control over their happiness or life path. Whether, a traumatic life event, personal or professional life changes, or uncertainty at what is at the helm of their depression, anxiety, or hopelessness. My goal is to offer support, to restore hope through interventions and help clients live again, with a sense of hopefulness and healing.

As a multicultural and diversity sensitive counselor, I will meet you right where you are and help guide you towards healing and freedom. You will find my therapeutic style insightful, engaging, and nonjudgmental. I work with adults from ages 18+.

I have a heart to nurture, respond and support people through their emotions and life experiences. While my overall passion is helping people, I specifically find that aiding others in sorting through their relationships in their lives (romantic, familial, professional, etc) not only helps them grow, but ultimately it grows us as well. I look forward to the opportunity to help you explore and develop your “best self."

I am currently a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and completed my Master’s degree in Clinical Rehabilitation & Mental Health Counseling from the University of Pittsburgh. My training, education, and professional experiences have strengthened my background in providing a variety of counseling services, specifically working with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.

Therapy is a journey. Like many journeys, the first step may be the hardest to take. So congratulations on taking this first step today! I work to meet my clients where they are in the moment. Every client will be given positive regard and respect. Come as you are, with your goals and desires. We will figure this out together. I work with individuals, couples and families with a variety of goals. Growing in communication skills, conflict resolution, anxiety, depression and frustrations.

Are you overwhelmed with school, work, and major life decisions? Does it feel like you don’t have the focus or confidence to follow through with your goals? Are you struggling to build relationships and feel anxious or withdrawn in social situations? Parents, do you feel like you’re spinning your wheels to motivate and prepare your child for adulthood and its falling on deaf ears? Are you unsure how to approach conversations you know are crucial during adolescence? Do you long for a relationship where you can be a guide instead of a nag?

Change can be scary, and you should be proud that you are taking the steps towards that change. The fear of the unknown can be paralyzing enough to keep us in circumstances we are unhappy with, but change will only occur when the pain of things remaining the same becomes greater than that fear. This is a feat you should truly be proud of!

My goal in working with individuals is to help them reach their full potential by tapping into their authentic selves in their personal, relational and professional lives. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, stress, history of trauma, depression, and relationship issues. My experience heavily involves working with young adults struggling to navigate their lives in this hectic world!

Everyone has their own story and journey throughout life. No matter where you are in that journey, I believe that it takes strength and courage to share your story and be willing to make positive changes. I understand that it is hard to do this alone. I will create a safe place for you to share your thoughts and feelings while helping you to develop healthy coping strategies that will best serve your needs.

Navigating life’s obstacles can be overwhelming. I believe that therapy is a safe place to grow, learn and achieve shared goals using an eclectic mix of modalities to meet each of your unique needs.

Life can be stressful, down right overwhelming at times. “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.”-Helen Keller. During these times when things become too difficult to manage on our own, counseling can help with learning healthier ways to cope, expressing deep emotions in a safe environment, working on goals, and reaching your potential. My years of experience related to the field have focused on assisting clients with work-life balance, sense of purpose, breaking through fears, reducing anxiety, and improving self-esteem.

My therapeutic process is rooted in principles derived from a long-standing meditation practice combined with traditional time-tested attachment and analytical approaches. Although my process is tailored to each client’s uniqueness, the fundamental aspects involve enhancing personal insight through developing a heightened awareness of both mind and body. I also place a strong emphasis on the the impact of your family system on your present self, so we're likely to explore these aspects of your life as we work to process, integrate, heal, and thrive.

Hi there! First off, I'm glad you're here and are looking for a therapist! Finding the right fit is important. Even if it is not with me, you're doing the right thing for yourself, and you should give yourself credit and kindness. If you have recently said to yourself "I can't do this anymore" or "I'm better than this", my answer is "you don't have to" and "yes, you are". Whether it's depression, anxiety, family issues, etc, you deserve a sense of peace and clarity in your life.

"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." (Viktor Frankl) Many of those I work with are dealing with issues of grief and loss. Others suffer from addictions and desire to embark on a recovery path, or love someone with addictions and need to learn how to take care of themselves. Many are journeying through resolving trauma, anxiety, stress or depression issues. Regardless of your pain, I am invested in your growth, emotional freedom and creating your wellness plan.
