I take a collaborative, client-centered approach to therapy. I bring considerable expertise in evidence-based practices – techniques that we know work, based on decades of research – while treating YOU as the expert on your life and experiences. We work as a team to clarify what matters most to you, identify the obstacles getting in your way, and develop the skills to overcome them. Beyond alleviating psychological suffering, my goal is to empower clients to build rich, meaningful lives and relationships. I cultivate a warm, validating space, where you feel safe to explore, grow, and make challenging but important changes.
Most often, I work with adults, young adults, adolescents, and children dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, sleep difficulties, motivational challenges, ADHD, identity concerns, and/or relationship issues. I also provide family and couples therapy. Additionally, I conduct ADHD and other diagnostic assessments.
I work with the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness. I am licensed in South Carolina and certified to provide teletherapy for clients in 40+ states through PSYPACT. I am in-network for Independence Blue Cross of Pennsylvania and Compsych Managed Care. We can also provide documentation for out-of-network reimbursement, if applicable.
