NOW OFFERING ART THERAPY. Many people have had negative experiences with counseling, making them hesitant to seek help again. We are especially skilled at working with those who are uncomfortable with the idea of therapy. Clients have described us as “Therapists for people who don’t like therapy”. We try to understand people on an individual level & adapt our skills to meet their needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working to root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

Unfortunately many people have had negative experiences with counseling, making them hesitant to seek help again. I am especially skilled at working with those who are uncomfortable with the idea of therapy. A client once told me "You should be a therapist for people who do not like therapy". I try to understand people on an individual level & adapt my skills to meet their needs. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working through the root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

Seeking help can feel uncomfortable not only to those who have never sought therapy before, but also to those who have had negative experiences with counseling in the past. With over a decade of experience working with those who struggle with ADHD, Anxiety, Autism, Behavioral Problems, Depression, Parenting, Relationship Issues, Work Issues, etc., my goal is to create a laid back atmosphere where we work together to achieve your goals.

At Summit Psychological Services, we are commited to providing a postive experience while you start or continue your journey to a more healthy, happy you. Whether you are looking for assistance with an immidiate problem or to gain a greater understanding of yourself, we would like to help you on your journey.

I am only conducting virtual sessions with clients in Pennsylvania. I have additional training in prolonged exposure for PTSD and CBT for psychosis. My clinical interests include: Anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. I'm affirming of the LGBTQ+ community as well as poly, open and other relationships.

Wellness is not just an absence of negative feelings and thoughts, but a presence of positive emotions and a healthy mindset. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, or feeling stuck, I can help. I provide a safe and caring environment for my clients to feel validated, encouraged, and hopeful. I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I use evidence-based and goal-directed treatments. My hope is to help you reach your potential and flourish. Therapy within a Christian framework is offered upon request. I am currently offering both telehealth and in-person appointments.
