I take a holistic perspective with my clients to address the health of body, mind, and spirit. I believe that a solid therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is a crucial part of the healing process, and that techniques and therapy approaches must “fit” the client in order to be effective—there is no “one size fits all” therapy. My goal, as a counselor and therapist, is to deeply understand my client, and when this happens we are able to identify areas of life that need to be changed, and ways of going about doing that. Therapy is a collaborative process between a trained therapist and a client who wants to change.

Change is an inevitable part of life that can sometimes be scary, anxiety inducing, and difficult to cope with. Because change is often fraught with unknowns, I believe a strong therapeutic relationship – one that is built on trust, empathy, compassion, and non-judgement – is essential to the healing process. My focuses include working with adults of all ages to address a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem, and grief and loss. I also have experience working with individuals diagnosed with chronic or terminal illnesses, as well as their family members and caregivers.

Let’s be honest - life can get to be a lot! Between work stress, endless to-do lists, relationships, and trying to remember where you left your keys (again), it’s easy to feel like your brain’s running 47 tabs at once. If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place!
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Pittsburgh, PA, and I’ve spent nearly 20 years helping people understand and learn to manage the impacts of trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and major life transitions. My approach is down-to-earth, collaborative, and sometimes even a little funny, because therapy doesn’t have to feel stiff or serious all the time.
