Highmark Therapists in Turtle Creek, PA
We are now accepting UPMC (both commercial and Medicaid), Highmark and United insurance!
Welcome, welcome, WELCOME! All my life I have believed that a person needs to be the change they want to see in the world. Thus my practice is one where people are free to learn, to grow, to express themselves freely and without judgement about whatever ails them. This could be daily life struggles of riding public transportation, or more philosophical questions about the meaning of life, and everything in between. All it takes to start is the willingness to have a conversation. I take a trauma focused, client first approach which makes getting that conversation started even easier!

You’re doing a lot for everyone, and at the same time you’re trying to hold on to who you are. Maybe you’re figuring out adulthood, balancing school or work, managing relationships, or trying to feel like “yourself” while also being there for other people. Big changes — starting college, career shifts, breakups, becoming a parent, identity changes — can feel overwhelming, lonely, or like a loss. You don’t have to sort it out alone. This is a space to say what’s really going on, without having to minimize it or make it sound okay.

Hi! Thanks for stopping on your search.
As a therapist, I’ve worked with clients returning from incarceration, experiencing homelessness, and navigating opiate addiction. Those experiences have grounded me in the realities that shape mental health, as well as in the opportunities present at our most challenging moments.
I approach therapy from a collaborative, transparent perspective. That means you’ll always know why we’re going where we’re going, and what we’re working toward. You are the foremost expert on yourself and your world; my role is to work alongside you, not to tell you who you are.
