Preteen Therapists in Limerick, PA

Presently offering supervision and accepting new clients! I work with adolescents, teens and college-age students/emerging adults who are struggling with anxiety, parental separation/divorce, ADHD, depression, self-harm, life transitions and self-esteem. I also support parents who have children with a mental health and/or behavioral health diagnoses. My goal is to support these caretakers in having a safe space to process their feelings, manage stressors and identify strengths that can support them in meeting the needs of their child but also working to take care and support themselves in a healthy way.

Empathy for the realities of human suffering and trauma in our world, drew me to devote my career to therapy. I have a passion for helping children, teens, young adults, parents and families understand the patterns of harm that are contributing to their suffering. I believe each individual who enters the therapy process possesses the ability to explore the roots of their suffering and begin the journey toward healing.

After graduating with my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling, I have worked in various mental health settings such as, outpatient, schools, partial hospitalization, residential and provided in-home therapy. I have therapy experience with individuals of all ages struggling with anxiety, self esteem, depression, SI, self-harm, behavioral problems, relationship and social issues, severe mental illnesses and behavioral problems. I have a passion for working with adolescents, tweens, teens and young adults. I take a client centered approach integrating evidenced based methods to individualize treatment to each client.

Was your journey towards parenthood one that brought overwhelming feelings of sadness, grief, and anxiety? Has your relationship with your partner changed drastically since having your child? Is being a parent much more difficult than you expected it would be? If you’ve experienced anxiety, depression or trauma in the perinatal period, you’re not alone. The pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period can be one of the most consuming & loneliest times in a new parent's life. No one deserves for this time in their lives to be filled with distressing thoughts, dread, or fear.

There is help for you, your child, teen, young adult, and family! We passionately serve all of our clients with the goal to help them reach their highest potential. We believe in early intervention and supporting people through their feelings, thoughts, transitions, and adversities as early as possible in order to reduce the onset of more serious psychopathology in later years. We also believe in compassionately supporting the family system and educating parents on childhood development, parenting strategies, healthier ways to manage their own emotions, breaking generational trauma, and learn healthier communication and connection.
