I accept clients with the following insurances: Highmark, Beacon Value-Options, Cigna, UPMC and Private Pay.
As a therapist I believe all people have the inherent strength to make positive life changes and often just need empowered through compassionate support. We all have times in our lives when we get stuck in our relationships and just need new effective ways of coping and communicating. I practice from a trauma focused and structural family perspective. I have been very successful in helping couples, families, individuals, and adolescents make positive changes that have lead to feelings of peace, healing, a sense of personal accomplishment, and problem resolution.

We are in-network with most major insurance carriers, including Highmark, Cigna, UPMC, Aetna, and Optum/United.
We all go through stressful periods in our lives. Sometimes it's a result of a traumatic event, such as a sexual assault, loss of a loved one, or difficult life transition. Sometimes it's more complicated to pinpoint. Maybe we are having trouble coping with school, work, or everyday life and are not sure why. Maybe we feel stuck and just feel "off" or not ourselves. I believe that everyone is capable of changing their life and moving toward happiness. Whether you are new to therapy or have gone in the past, I'll work with you with non-judgment and compassion to help to you on your journey of personal growth.

The constant pressures of life can leave us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and anxious about the future. When daily stress piles on top of deep-rooted pain it’s easy to feel worn down. Carrying it alone can become too much, yet reaching out for support can feel hard. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re a therapy veteran, I strive to help you connect with your own unique story and authentic voice. My aim is to have you feel deeply seen and heard as the individual that you are.

On the outside, you may seem like you have everything together. You’re responsible, dependable, and often the one others rely on. But internally, you may feel overwhelmed by racing thoughts, constant worry, loops of overthinking or obsessive thoughts, or be constantly trying to keep everything “just right.” You might struggle with people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or a deep fear of letting others down. For many individuals, these patterns may be rooted in earlier relational experiences where you learned to manage everything alone, stay hyper-aware of others’ needs, and push your own feelings aside.

Are you “stuck”—either on something that’s changed in your life, in the world around us, or just in general? Maybe something just feels strange or "off". Change is intimidating, even when we take it one step at a time, and often we can’t see the full picture without stepping away for a wider view. Sometimes, you just need another perspective - one that's neutral and doesn't "take sides." Your situation, just like you, is unique, and I can help you through it. I’m here to honor your struggle and help you build on the skills you have. I can help you respect or heal past decisions and help you to define new ones.
