I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I completed my Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology and Criminal Justice at Neumann University, and my Masters of Arts in School Counseling at Eastern University. I work with children, teens, adults, couples and families who are seeking support as they overcome challenges related to mood disorders, anger management, grief and loss, relationship issues, behavioral interventions, trauma, sports performance and life transitions. I have experience ranging from working in client's homes, schools, community, private practice settings and the criminal justice system.

Anxious? Depressed? Lacking motivation or direction? You're not alone. I believe that each of us possesses the ability to change, grow and live happier, healthier, more fulfilling lives. Sometimes we just need a little help along the way. I work with persons of all ages and incorporate a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities into my practice, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all model for counseling and take special care to honor the unique lived experiences of those I work with.

I believe that everyone has a unique story, deserving an equally unique therapeutic experience that speaks to their story and prompts the change they desire most. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults. I work with my clients addressing: ADHD, Anger Management, Anxiety, Behavioral Issues, Career Counseling, Chronic Illness, Learning Disabilities, Transitions, Obsessive-Compulsive, Oppositional Defiance, Parenting, Developing Coping and Social Skills, Pregnancy/Postpartum, Relationship Issues, School Issues, Self-Harm, Suicidal Thoughts, Self Esteem, Depression, Domestic Violence, Emotional Distress, and Grief and Loss.

Anger management is not about removing one's anger; anger management is learning to recognize and control our responses to life's anger causing stressors. Without the proper help, this may be easier said than done. If your primary concern is the need to discover how to manage your anger, please recognize there is a vast difference between general training and advanced certification in my area of expertise. I am an organizational psychologist and I have been certified to work with adults and teens on their anger management issues. New anger management classes now forming. Please check our webpage.

The therapeutic process can be one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. I encourage those who may be struggling with life stressors or a particular disorder to take your life situation into your own hands by reaching out & making change happen. I encourage you to make an appointment with me & see for yourself how much relief you feel in just the first session. Life can be difficult & sometimes we all need an objective, trained professional to listen, without judgment, to our concerns, perceived failures, fears, & past hurts. You only get one life, LIVE IT NOW! HIPAA compliant video conferencing appts also available.
