Life can be overwhelming, stressful and confusing. I get that. Sometimes we all need a little help navigating through the rough waters. I will listen to your concerns and hear what you are saying and notice what you are not saying. I will help you identify new coping skills to deal with the specific life difficulties you are facing. I view therapy as a journey that you and I will take together to figure things out in a warm, supportive, and safe environment.

Looking for some perspective or in need of a change? Therapeutic support is a way to create your own guide to living your life to the fullest. Wanting better relationships or struggling to achieve your goals? We all get in our own way sometimes and could benefit from an objective sounding board. I've enjoyed working and walking along many different paths in life with others, helping people learn and grow.

Together we can combat anything from a misunderstanding to a minute stressor to a major life crisis.

Most of us could use a little help dealing with life sometimes. If you have noticed that you are struggling to cope with the situations, symptoms, people, and/or challenges in your life as effectively as you would like or are used to, you may be considering therapy. I applaud your courage and welcome you to contact me to determine if I am the Psychologist for you.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist located in the North Hills of Pittsburgh who treats adults across the lifespan. I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 25 years, working with individuals on a wide range of issues and concerns. I have particular experience working with difficulties related to anxiety, stress, and physical health (including panic attacks, generalized anxiety, OCD, coping with chronic pain and illness, coping with life transitions, sleep difficulties).

You are so tired of merely existing. You want to find self-acceptance, but sometimes you struggle with knowing what that "self" even is. You feel like you don't belong anywhere and that everyone around you has abandoned you. You feel like you are doing all of this alone. You are in pain and no one around you even knows, because you refuse to let them see it. Or you don't want to be a burden. But you know deep down you can't keep going like this, because you're a pressure cooker and you just need some relief. Or some guidance. Or SOMEthing. You may feel like you face rejection everywhere... but not here.

Between what society and those around you say, you constantly feel like you are not enough. You are feeling lost in the world and so badly want to feel grounded for once, but have no idea where to start or where it's even safe to begin navigating that. What you are experiencing is so multi-layered that it leaves you feeling stuck. My passion is helping other people to truly find themselves by unraveling layers of trauma, societal expectations, and negativity imposed by others. I want to help you figure out how to be truly, wholly yourself and live a life that encompasses your values and beliefs.

As a counselor, I have always been aware of the courage and openness a client needs to be able to seek support and engage in counseling services. I also understand how difficult it is to make therapeutic changes in one's life. I am humbled to be privileged to learn about a client's intimate struggles, and I take the depth of that relationship of respect, privacy, boundaries, and expectations very seriously. My ideal client is anyone open to counseling, receiving feedback, and willing to work together on developing action steps towards change and personal growth.

Are you looking for a therapist to get you unstuck on your journey through life? Are you hitting roadblocks on your path to your emotional well-being? Do you need help or assistance resolving obstacles at this point in your life? Or do you need to be heard or find your voice?

It is a courageous act to trust others with our innermost cognitive and emotional experiences: our pain, our worries, our anger, even our hopes and aspirations. Pause for a moment to recognize yourself for considering this step in your journey.

Are you struggling with difficult life transitions, depression, & anxiety? I enjoy working with clients who feel motivated to take that first step of exploring reasons why they are feeling unhappy or dissatisfied with their lives right now. I work with clients who want to gain insight & learn tangible skills that they can practice outside of the therapeutic sessions to change their lives for the better. My role as a Licensed Professional Counselor is to help individuals gain insight and feel empowered to create positive change in their lives.

Many find psychotherapy useful as a space to explore stressors and difficulties, learn new ways to cope with hardships, and ultimately make changes to enhance quality of life.

I utilize an integrative approach including person-centered, supportive, CBT, and/or psychodynamic techniques, always tailoring my style to meet each client's unique needs.

Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, family problems, or parenting we can work together to help you utilize your strengths and positive qualities when addressing life issues.

Vulnerability. It's a word that sounds all motivating and "Hell yeah!" when Brene Brown talks about it, but when it comes to actually DOING it, it terrifies you. In order to get to the root of what's causing your discomfort, I'm going to ask you to get vulnerable. I'm going to ask you to share your story (no, the real story) with me. But you don't have to do it alone. I want to help you move from SURVIVING to THRIVING. I want you to FINALLY start living the life you've imagined. It doesn't have to be "someday". It can be now. And I can help.

You miss your old, capable self. Your days are now busy with appointments, interrupted by the side effects of your disease or treatment, and flooded with emotions. Life is sometimes difficult, but chronic illness has made your circumstances even more complicated. You're so tired of feeling lost and waiting for life to return to normal. As others dismiss your concerns with well-meaning statements of hope or offers of vague promises of help, your isolation grows. Hopelessness and fear creep in. You know you need support or guidance, but figuring out who or what will be helpful feels overwhelming. Where do you even begin?
