It can be hard to ask for help. My focus is always on you, what you want and determining and meeting your goals. My orientation is open-minded, experienced, respectful and non-judgmental. I have been in the Behavioral Health field for 25 years and have a reputation of authenticity, unconditional, positive regard for clients and strong, reliable abilities and skills in dealing with life's challenges. I primarily practice CBT, Gestalt and Mindfulness therapies.
I see adult clients in person or on telehealth anywhere in Pennsylvania. Whether you find yourself recovering from trauma, stuck in old patterns, life changes or frustrating behaviors, I can provide support, discovery and insight that can help you move through painful issues to a life with more joy, meaning and peace.
I have been both a Behaviorl Health Therapist and Clinical Manager of an D&A Outpatient Rehabilitation site. If your crisis phase of active substance use is resolved, I can help support in issues that arise when substance abuse is managed. Also, before entering this field, I had 15 successful years in Sales and Management, along with 4 years of lifecoaching.
