I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I graduated from Lehigh University with a Bachelor of Arts with a double major in Social Psychology and Social Relations while at the same time obtaining an undergraduate Certification in Social Work from Moravian College. In 2007, I returned to school and, in 2009, received a Master of Science in Marriage and Family from Valdosta State University. I have been a therapist for more than 15 years.
Goal setting is client-centered, meaning the client shares what they see as their goal for therapy. If needed, I am glad to share suggestions based on what the client tells me they want to get from coming to therapy.
The first session will be an intake session to complete the information required to move forward. The next few sessions will be establishing a therapeutic relationship. It is important that the client and I establish who we are, and what are communication styles are and share likes and dislikes.

I believe in a holistic approach, utilizing the strengths and spiritual beliefs of the individual. Meeting the client where they are is essential. My strengths are my talent for seeing beyond what a client is telling me with words, and my non-judgmental philosophy.

As a therapist, I find that being direct and honest is a must. Some of my communication styles are talk therapy, writing, and collaboration. When discussing whether therapy is beneficial and works, I believe "Finding the 'Right Fit" is critical to achieving results from therapy. If therapy is not working because the client and therapist are NOT a good fit, the client cannot and must not give up!
