I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 8 years of experience in the mental health field. I am passionate about helping children, adolescents, adults, and families grow beyond current challenges. I specialize in depression, anxiety, personality disorders, grief, chronic and serious mental health issues, communication, and managing life stressors.
I completed my Master of Social Work (MSW) at the University of Pittsburgh and have worked in a variety of settings, including corrections systems, school systems, and outpatient settings.
I value the importance of the therapeutic relationship and ensure that the treatment process is a mutual collaboration. I am confident that I will be able to support you on your journey to help you achieve your goals and learn the skills to manage whatever life may throw at you.
