Therapists in Orwigsburg, PA

I combine empathy, humor and creativity when working with clients. I have found that one of the most important parts of therapy is the relationship. I am person-centered, collaborative and focus on a healthy working relationship that builds on my client's strengths and experiences. I am trained in a variety of evidence based counseling theories and have over ten years of experience working in the mental health field. I enjoy working with teens and adults. An instillation of hope, collaborative relationship and readiness for change are all ingredients for healing and wellness.

I use a person-centered approach to counseling to build a foundation of trust and openness. When anxiety, depression, stress, relationships and life responsibilities feel overwhelming you may sometimes feel like you have lost yourself. Taking the step to engage in therapy can help you process thoughts and emotions in a nonjudgmental and affirming environment so that you begin to gain a sense of life balance. With a combination of counseling approaches, I'll help you talk about and explore important issues in your life through a compassionate and affirming lens so that you can begin to feel more like yourself again.

Despite all of the time, the effort, the planning and mental energy you’ve poured into achieving the body and life of your dreams, you still haven’t felt that sigh of relief that it’s enough. That you’re enough. And, somehow, the more measures you take to be in control, the more out of control you actually feel. Leaving you grasping and spinning your wheels. Thinking of what you can do to feel a sense of stability in yourself and in your life. The burn out from trying to live up to an impossible standard is real.
