Therapists in Latrobe, PA

Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that believes everyone is unique and needs to develop skills that work for you. I use a solution focused approach to assess underlying causes and help relieve symptoms of trauma, maladaptive thinking patterns and increase healthy coping skills.

I have been providing treatment to children, adolescents and adults for over 20 years. I believe therapy should be designed to meet each persons specific needs and goals.

We all struggle in the relationships that are important to us and need help some of the time to develop skills to strengthen these relationships. We lose connection and have difficulty communicating with our partners or spouses; we get stuck in conflict with our children; we lose track of who we are; we dread going to work because it feels hostile or unsafe; we question our faith; we have trouble expressing needs at school; and we neglect our bodies and our health. The relationships we have with ourselves and others are always evolving and we need to change with them.
