I am a License Professional Counselor helping my clients discover how they can successfully contend with a range of issues, including the challenges of everyday life, abuse issues, trauma, crisis and behavioral and mental health. My mission is to guide my clients to identify their self-worth and to obtain the skills they need to realize their resilience. We pursue these goals through counseling, interpersonal training, education, motivation, exploration and identification. Self-sufficiency and healthy positive development are markers of our success.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience and I have been treating clients in private practice for the past 10 years in Philadelphia. I work with adults, children and families. I support my clients and help them learn how to cope with and overcome personal challenges, build inner strength and develop self-confidence. I create therapeutic atmosphere of respect, safety, and trust. I help my clients to recognize, discover and develop their own resources. I listen and take interest in each client. My approach is tailored to the unique needs of each individual.

We are the expert of our lives, but at times we may need some additional support or guidance. While we often give priority to taking care of our physical health, I believe our mental and emotional health needs just as much attention.

Thank you for visiting this page and allowing me to be a part of your healing journey. I am honored that you have chosen to review my experience to see if we are a good match. I provide a safe space for you to feel empowered to change at your pace and experience the freedom to grow. My approach is each person has life experience that needs to be honored. In honoring you for who you are and where you are in life, I can assist you with moving through the emotional discomfort as well as offer techniques and skills to bring comfort.

I focus upon all things relational. We all occasionally find ourselves facing a transition/change, problem, concern, or conflict that we are unable to resolve; despite our determined attempts. I maintain that what we get "stuck-in" is living life and relational; no matter with whom or to what we are relating. If you desire, and are ready to learn how to get "un-stuck", I am prepared to help you create positive lasting changes in your life. I promise to provide you respectful, culturally sensitive, person centered, and solution focused counseling care. I look forward to hearing from you.

We are a group of graduate-level psychologists, psychiatrists, and counselors who provide quality mental health care to the Northeast Philadelphia community. As a mental health collective, we assist members by providing therapy, medication management, coaching, and more. Let us help you connect with one of our therapists who meets your needs and is available to see you, online or in-person.

Some of human suffering is about the way we experience the events of our lives rather than the things themselves. Therapy offers an opportunity to bring awareness to our experiences and change our relationship to them rather than try to change the events themselves. Through this approach, we gain a sense of control in our lives and positively experience and influence its direction. If we believe that we have power within us to achieve health and happiness, then the events in our lives that cause us pain and suffering can be seen as an opportunity to learn about ourselves and experience personal growth.
