I am licensed in the state of Pennsylvania and am certified in Trauma Focused CBT.
Have you experienced a traumatic event, or recently lost someone close to you? Have you been avoiding people, places and activities that may cause to you have intrusive thoughts, involuntary memories, or flashbacks? This can be extremely painful and debilitating but is a common response to trauma and loss. Unfortunately, many people learn to avoid topics related to their trauma or loss for fear that talking about it will cause uncontrollable painful emotions to arise. This can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, numbness, feeling detached from others and low self-esteem and can have negative long-term impacts.

Mental health symptoms—like depression, anxiety, anger, or chronic stress—are not the problem in themselves, but signals from within. They’re often the body and mind’s way of saying, ‘Something isn’t right,’ or ‘Something needs to change.’ In therapy, we create a safe and intentional space to explore these signals with curiosity and compassion. Together, we work to understand the underlying needs, build insight, and develop a more supportive relationship with yourself.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in education and a deep belief in the power of curiosity and connection as pathways to healing and growth. As a teacher I saw firsthand how emotional well-being impacts our ability to learn, grow, and thrive — at any age. That experience continues to shape my approach today: I view therapy as a collaborative process of learning about yourself, building new skills, and finding joy and balance in everyday life. I work with individuals and couples who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship struggles, and major life transitions.

Clients who work with me come to therapy feeling disconnected from themselves and overwhelmed with the challenging demands of life. Often they present as outwardly successful and are struggling internally with not feeling good enough. They tend to have histories of painful experiences and a misunderstanding of their needs. Many of my clients are people going through life changes and transitions or are individuals who work in demanding professions. Often clients are looking to feel more effective in their abilities and more grounded in their professional and personal identities.

We can’t always control what happens to us—but we can choose how we respond, heal, and move forward. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. You may be navigating the loss of a loved one, working through past trauma, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life. Wherever you are, taking the step to explore therapy is already a meaningful move toward change.
