I strive to provide a comfortable, confidential, and supportive environment where you can feel safe to heal, gain insight, and experience personal growth. Life and relationships with others can be challenging at times. The counseling relationship can serve as a helpful tool when navigating these challenges, providing you with a clearer understanding, appropriate coping skills, and plan moving forward.

I provide a safe and compassionate atmosphere to support awareness and acceptance so that change can then happen. I focus on my client’s strengths to assist them in living a life worth living, and achieving the life they want. Our work together can target ineffective thinking and behavior patterns, painful emotions, and conflicted relationships. We can work on developing healthier coping strategies and ways of looking at ourselves and the world around us.

Our counselors have significant experience and training in working with children and their families. While approaching each person as an individual with their own positive characteristics and one-of-a-kind needs, our counselors offer effective therapeutic techniques that enhance progress. We offer a warm and inviting space where each child can safely explore their emotions and behaviors.

I offer a safe and comfortable space where you can explore areas of your life that you want to improve, changes you want to make, and work on figuring out who you are and what you want to be. I believe in therapy as a partnership and I feel privileged to be a part of the journey towards whatever goals you may have. Life is complicated and can be painful at times. But you don't have to deal with it alone.

I utilize a cognitive behavioral approach to evaluate and treat a wide variety of clinical psychopathology and personality disorders.

Thank you for taking this step toward healing and growth. I hope the information below gives you a sense of who I am as a person and a psychologist, and what I envision therapy to be. What is therapy? Therapy is about connecting. Connecting with your therapist opens pathways to better relating with intersecting aspects of yourself which include but are not limited to thoughts, feelings, body sensations, values, personal and social identities, etc. The therapy progress is forever evolving as you continue to learn more about yourself, the contexts that you are living in, and how to better manage struggles and challenges in life.

Therapy is a joint effort of two people to make significant changes in a person's life. I am coming in to session as an expert on change and you are the expert on yourself and the ideal life you want to live. Together we will work to find out what changes you would like to make in your life, and most importantly, how to get you there.

My ideal client is anyone who is brave enough to share a little of their story with me. It is very brave to be vulnerable with a stranger who has not rightfully earned your trust yet. I enjoy working with individuals who survive depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, substance use disorders, personality disorders, family issues, interpersonal relationship issues, womens issues, LGBTQ specific issues, marital problems, self-esteem/insecurities, life transitions and most other variations distress or adversity.

"Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen" --Brene Brown. I realize that starting therapy can be a vulnerable and sometimes intimidating experience, which is why I work to create a safe space where you and I can work collaboratively to explore your concerns and help get you "unstuck". Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or sad? Do you need help in setting healthy boundaries or working through past traumas and experiences? I enjoy helping adults and adolescents process thoughts and life experiences to gain insight, make positive life changes, and improve mood.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Seeking help and counseling is a courageous act. My ideal client is one who is willing to take the leap and allow me to join alongside your journey of healing. I enjoy working with individuals who experience Veteran and/or military-related concerns, mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment concerns, substance abuse, relationship issues, family of origin concerns, men and women's issues, identity development, crisis intervention, self-esteem/insecurities, trauma, and most other reported stressors or adversity. I am also prior service military and have insight regarding this culture.

Graduated with MSW and certification in clinical mental health from the University of Pittsburgh in 2014. I specialize in working with youth and adults who are experiencing mental health symptoms, PTSD, addiction, and/ or behavioral issues. I also work with couples and families to help them make changes that allow them to effectively communicate, work through conflicts in a skilled way and be able to be genuinely affectionate with each other.

My philosophy of therapy is that it is collaborative, person centered, and strengths-based process that has the ability to transform individual’s lives. Life is about transitions and change, and therapy can provide a safe place to learn skills to cope with these inevitable parts of life. My therapy style is to provide support and a non-judgmental stance to provide a safe place to process life’s difficulties.

Life transitions often lead us on a quest for self-discovery. As a therapist, my role is to collaborate with you in removing the obstacles that prevent growth and resiliency. This journey involves exploring how your past impacts the challenges that lead you to therapy. As we work together, you will develop the ability to navigate life with effective coping strategies.
