Therapists in South Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA
It is my honor to collaborate with clients as they access their strengths and resilience to make and maintain meaningful change. I work to create a warm, non-judgment, and trauma-informed therapy space, so we can develop an individualized treatment plan tailored to your personal values and needs. We then partner together as we explore the many facets and layers of you, your family, and your environment in order to help you learn more about yourself, understand your struggles, and make concrete changes in your life. I believe in a person’s ongoing ability to grow and change and it is my pleasure to partner with you on that journey.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family (LMFT) therapist working from a systemic lens through my virtual private practice. My philosophy is that through cultivating your relationship with yourself and by becoming the best, most developed version of yourself, you can engage in relationships - romantic, familial, and platonic - in deeper, more meaningful, and healthier ways. My hope is to facilitate you and/or you and your loved ones through this process by exploring what is keeping you stuck and discovering old patterns that no longer serve you.

I have come to understand that the intimacy between oneself, others, and the world are intricately linked to accessing acceptance, compassion, and contentment. Through grounding techniques, I help my clients find balance in all aspects of their lives, embracing both the light and the shadows that define the human experience. My mission is to create a safe space where vulnerability is met with empathy, and where the journey towards mental health is an art form in itself.

If I had a catch phrase, it might be that “everyone should experience therapy at some point in life”. I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy and that one does not need to be in crisis in order to seek out support from a therapist. Maybe you’re coping with multiple stressors at work, home, or in relationships. Perhaps you’re interested in looking into past traumas and healing from wounds that have impacted the course of your life. Whatever it is that has brought you to this page, I’m hopeful that I can be someone to help you through it.

People come to therapy for so many reasons - perhaps it’s a feeling of overwhelm, a desire to build connection and closeness with yourself and others, or just a hunch that something is off. Whatever your reason may be, now is a great time to begin. I intend to meet you with curiosity and warmth to learn about the depths of your experience as a whole person, honoring the ways you have adapted to manage challenging experiences. I attend carefully to pacing, and will prioritize your autonomy throughout the therapeutic process. Importantly, our work will center on what is important to you.

I support people dealing with depression, anxiety, relational distress, life transitions, gender and sexuality exploration, chronic illness, autism and/or ADHD. Healthy relationships with our family, friends, and support systems including therapy inform our ability to cope, process, and grow. I believe healing happens when we develop self-compassion for our most shamed parts and build support systems that meet us with care and understanding. My style is integrative, mindful and rooted in social justice.

I have been working as a counselor for three years; before working as a counselor I was a teaching in Philadelphia for kindergarten and first grade. I have a lot of experience working with clients dealing with mood issues, anxiety, and trauma. For many of my clients, these three issues overlap and create the perfect storm, so to speak, causing significant issues with quality of life and relationships, among other issues. I also have worked extensively with women and individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ and the queer community. As a woman and the member of the queer community, I share some lived experiences with these clients.

I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges that include anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, shame, embarrassment, procrastination, avoidance, marital/couple/family relations and more. My approach though highly individualized and eclectic is primarily a cognitive behavioral one in which we delve into the emotional, behavioral and cognitive roots in order to identify, challenge and ultimately replace those unhelpful aspects with health promoting aspects. This along with a commitment to hard work on the part of the client often results in improved functioning and an enriched and more satisfying quality of life.

It’s natural to experience unhelpful patterns or symptoms when we've experienced trauma and adverse childhood experiences. We feel off balance, chronically stressed, anxious, or depressed. I prefer to view these symptoms as inner parts who need our attention and care. When these inner parts are healed, they feel less compelled to ruminate, obsess, or depress. That means there is more space for the qualities you want to have in your life, such as creativity, joy, confidence, clarity, peace, and presence.
