Not accepting new clients: Life can feel messy and overwhelming sometimes. If anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma, or relationship stress has you stuck, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and use compassion, honesty, and humor to help make the hard stuff feel a little lighter. In therapy we’ll sort through what’s weighing on you, explore better boundaries and communication, and find real-life strategies that work for you. I see clients across Pennsylvania via telehealth and in-person in Erie. Let’s work together to find some relief and hope.
I help people facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and relationship stress feel less stuck and more supported. I’m trauma-informed, a certified Grief Counselor, and trained in evidence-based approaches. My style is compassionate, practical, and down-to-earth so you can find strategies that truly fit your life.
Life can feel heavy, and it takes courage to reach out. In our work together, you’ll find a safe space where you’re met with compassion, honesty, and no judgment. Whether you’re navigating big changes or everyday struggles, you don’t have to do it alone. I’d be honored to support you as you take the next step forward.
