Therapists in Bellefonte, PA

Mental health symptoms like depression, anxiety, anger, stress, etc., are just that- symptoms! These symptoms are our bodies way of telling us "something's not right" or "there needs to be a change here." It is imperative that we are mindful in listening to our bodies, and intentionally work to meet our emotional needs. In therapy, we dedicate time to build insight, strengthen more compassionate mindsets, and learn coping skills which regulate our bodies.

As a licensed psychologist and clinical neuropsychologist, I have over 22 years of experience working as a therapist, evaluator, and consultant. My work with Hope and Healing involves providing support to individuals aged 16 and up who are experiencing a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, loneliness, and major life transitions. With a firm grounding in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I believe that effective therapy is only possible through the establishment of a mutually respectful, honest, and nonjudgmental therapeutic partnership.

My practice provides a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors without judgment. I support individuals who want to develop coping skills and techniques to better manage their symptoms and improve their overall well-being, while seeking understanding and validation for their experiences and practical guidance on how to navigate their daily lives more effectively. Common goals may include reducing anxiety or depressive symptoms, improving attention and focus, enhancing social skills and relationships, or overcoming past traumas.

I integrate both Western and Eastern techniques and provide clinical tools that connect the mind and body and promote wellness and healing. I take a holistic approach and work collaboratively with you on your journey toward self discovery, growth and healing. I focus on building on your personal strengths, explore balance, self compassion and peace in all areas of life. I use a client-centered, strengths- focused therapeutic approach. I work with adults, children (age 3 and up), adolescents, families and couples.
