I work with adults who are ready to make meaningful changes but aren't sure where to start. Many feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in unhelpful patterns related to relationships, stress, or past experiences. They often struggle with boundaries, emotional regulation, and feeling in control of their lives. I help client's identify patterns, develop effective coping tools, and create lasting change. Clients leave therapy with a greater sense of self-awareness, stronger boundaries, and the ability to navigate challenges with more confidence and clarity.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania also holding a telehealth license for the state of Florida. I earned my Master of Arts degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Geneva College. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, with specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and behavioral approaches.
I take a client-centered approach that looks beyond diagnosis to truly understand each person as an individual. Therapy with me is tailored to your unique needs, goals, and what matters most to you.
