I enjoy meeting women who want to feel confident, trust their decisions and live a life they love. I can personally relate to the many transitions women may face in their lives and how doubt and anxiety can build a mountain you feel too exhausted to climb. I understand the struggle to let someone in or ask for help. When you’re expected to handle it all for so long, you start to believe you’re supposed to… and if you can’t you may feel defeated or like you’ve failed. If you can relate, please know it doesn’t have to feel so overwhelming.
I believe you are the expert on your life, so together we look at what has worked in the past and use those strengths to make strides towards your goals. Not sure what your goals are? Uncertain what you want your life to look like? Indecisive? Scared? Doubtful? We start where you are at and you set the pace.
I invite you to message to see if our schedules align or visit my online booking page to choose a time we could talk about next steps so you can feel comfortable before committing. My hours are late afternoon/early evening; in-person in Franklin, PA or via video. I'd be happy to connect and learn more about how I can support you.

I work with individuals who may be struggling with life stressors, relationship issues, anxiety or depression. I focus on meeting you where you are at. This means you drive the sessions and set the pace. I believe individuals discuss issues when they are ready. It is possible to cope with the effects of having experienced trauma without reliving it.

One size fits most can work for clothing, but not therapy. I enjoy getting to know you and tailoring our plan specific to your needs. I would also let you know if your needs are best met with another specialist, as one therapist does not fit all.
