Therapists in City Center West, Philadelphia, PA

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is passionate about working with individuals and families as they navigate different transitions throughout their lives. I value my relationships with my clients and focus on providing them a safe space to open up and feel heard. Looking at ourselves and making changes for the better can be a very difficult thing to do, therefore, I make sure to approach therapy with my clients in an authentic, direct, and collaborative way.

I believe most people benefit from a therapist who can share an understanding of their situation or relationship, while also providing a new perspective and feedback on what is getting in their way. Whether you want to take better care of yourself or your relationship with an important person, or you want to address a big stressor, I can help you feel more self-assured and make constructive changes.

I truly believe that therapy works best when there is a strong and trusting relationship between client and therapist. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe in a strengths based perspective, and unconditional positive regard for my clients. The majority of my career has been exclusively serving the LGBTQ+ and the PLWHIV communities. I am fiercely passionate about both of these communities. I believe that we are all on our own journeys, and it often helps to have someone take that journey with you. It helps to have someone who sees you, hears you, and believes you. I will walk with you and hold that safe space for you.
