Therapists in Beaver, PA

I deeply respect the strength and courage it takes to reach out to someone you’ve never met before and ask for help. To honor this, I begin by listening to understand not only the things you’re struggling with, but also your strengths, goals, the things you value most. You’re the expert of your own life, and I strongly believe treatment should be a collaboration in which we work together as a team to achieve your goals. With this as the starting point, together we’ll develop a treatment plan personalized to you, as well as a tracker specific to your goals to make sure we’re always laser-focused on the changes you want to make.

My style of being and interacting with others is a person-centered and humanistic approach.

This is not a linear journey, and my role is to be there for you along the way.

Life can be very difficult! Though we will experience some harm no matter how we react to life, how we respond to life, in our thoughts, words and actions, will either increase or decrease the harm we encounter in our emotional stability, in our relationships and in our personal and spiritual hopes. Whether you are a parent needing help with your child, a spouse needing help with your marriage relationship or an individual struggling with distress and/or abusing alcohol or other substances, I would be honored to assist you in solving emotional, relational and behavioral concerns.

Accepting new clients now! I am known for my warmth, compassion, and encouragement. I believe that for therapy to be successful, we will need to work as a team. My areas of specialty include anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, and grief. I have experience in addiction recovery, grief counseling, tween self-empowerment, and reproductive issues. Prior to counseling, I was engaged in non-profit leadership which included speaking and coaching women and teens/young adults. In fact, it was the individuals I encountered during that season of life which inspired me to pursue professional counseling.

Let's work together to create a positive change in your life. I offer a safe and supportive space to allow my clients to be equal partners in the therapy process. Together, we can work to create a better understanding of your thoughts and feelings while also building skills to help foster a space for change and relief from stressors.

In the current world of ongoing and chronic stress, life issues can interfere with anyone's ability to live their life to the fullest. Sometimes these issues are life crises like the death of a loved one, new life phases like parenting and adjusting to a new born, or downsizing when the last child leaves home. Sometimes these issues are related to efforts to manage what feels like overwhelming stress with things like the over use of alcohol, drugs, video games, gambling, eating, anger or other less productive behaviors. Depression, anxiety, sleep issues and worry can all result from the experience of daily life. Counseling can help.

I enjoy working with teens and adults, especially those struggling to navigate some of the tougher moments of life. I have a lot of experience working with folks on emotional management - especially anger and anxiety - as well as exploring relationships and their impact on a person's life. I seek to help people find the best way forward and to overcome the stumbling blocks on their way. As a therapist, I also try to help challenge people's thoughts and help them gain new perspectives on the issues they're facing.
