When you are down, therapy helps you look up. When you feel agitated or fearful, therapy helps you find courage and hope. When you crave a substance or addictive behavior, therapy provides healthier tools for self-regulation, When you are swamped by unwanted feelings, therapy help you soften the disruption and return to your "better self." Through therapy and psychoeducation, I can help you replace old, limiting mental habits with more effective ones.

I have been providing Individual and Marriage/Couples Therapy in Bucks County, Pennsylvania for over 20 years. My primary office is in the Free Press Building, in Quakertown, PA. I am a member of the Pennsylvania Psychological Association and Academy of Psychologist Engaged in Private Practice in the Lehigh Valley.

Everybody experiences adversity differently. Not only is it is important to get to the core issues that are interfering with your daily functioning, but also to have someone provide understanding about these issues. My job is to focus on the presenting symptoms and work to get to the root of the problem. Whether you need individual or family counseling, I can provide it in a safe and comfortable atmosphere. By working together, you will be able to better identify strategies to help manage your symptoms and improve everyday life.

As a therapist, my role is to walk with people in understanding themselves and their lived experiences, to help people acquire skills to cope with adversity and build resilience, and to foster health, well-being, and self-compassion in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I strive to provide a warm, inclusive environment where clients can be themselves unconditionally - where they are free and encouraged to be who they are without hesitation. I believe the most crucial aspect of therapy is a solid, collaborative relationship based on empathy, trust, respect, and honesty. I understand my clients as human beings before anything else.

Having had the experience of working with people of all walks in life, one of my favorite parts of counseling is getting to know you as a person, the whole you! My goal in counseling is to work with each individual to help connect their mind-body-spirit (as you define it) in helping them to improve their overall wellness. The joy of counseling is finding what works for you which is why I tailor counseling to each individual, while working to help you identify your own strengths that can help you overcome the challenges that life has to offer.

I am experienced in depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relational conflict, family systems, addiction, criminal justice, anger management, eating disorders/body image, and mood disorders. The ideal client actively wants to explore their behaviors and thinking patterns and identify the underlying causes of these behaviors. In addition, the ideal client will be willing to tackle goals inside & outside therapy sessions. My ideal client would be an individual who is internally and externally motivated to change their life. They show up to sessions on time consistently and make a conscious effort to engage in the therapeutic process.

Are you a young adult dealing primarily with anxiety and life transition issues? This could be a recent college graduate starting their first big job, a major transition. I like walking beside them through these transitions and being an additional support. I also like helping people learn breathing techniques to manage anxiety and learn about polyvagal theory and a bottom-up approach. I enjoy working with clients who can articulate their goals, such as managing anxiety better and working on anxiety in different settings.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.

If you are looking to reduce anxiety, acquire healthy coping skills, and improve your relationships then you are in the right place. I am a licensed professional counselor, and I am passionate about helping teens and adults who are ready to process the deep inner conflicts to stop self-sabotaging. As your therapist I can help you see these patterns and also assist you in creating a roadmap to achieving sustained and meaningful change. I specialize working with individuals seeking support for anxiety, trauma, depression, and low self-esteem.

I enjoy working with clients who want to get to the root of their struggles. These clients would like to gain insight into their symptoms, something difficult that has happened to them or to explore cycles and patterns that aren’t serving them. The clients I see often have attended therapy in the past. The clients I see also often present with attachment-based traumas, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, and difficulties in their personal and work relationships.

Life starts to beat us down and burn us out. We find ourselves frustrated, irritated, and confused how to move forward. Friends and family that we relied on have run out of energy for us. We can't help it, but we're pushing them away. How can we overcome this struggle without losing those closest to us, without losing ourselves? The stress of life: work, school, family and this world at large can sometimes feel overwhelimg, leading to anxiety, mood and relationship problems or drinking and smoking too much.

Today's world is plagued by distractions that take us away from what is fundamentally important. Learning to separate from an illogical need to please others may allow us to determine our path and help us to be true to ourselves. There is no such thing as an ideal client, only willingness to look within as a shared experience is necessary for growth.

I have worked primarily with anxiety disorders, OCD, depressive disorders, and have experience working with service animals for mental health disorders. I have experience in a wide range of areas within other areas of mental health as well. I utilize a range of more directive approaches that have flexibility to grow and change during the therapeutic process.

Tired of endlessly searching for a Black therapist? Or perhaps you're wondering, 'Where are the gays?' I am a clinician who works with other LGBTQ+ individuals and people of color.

I specialize in working with teens and adults facing a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and family conflict.
