I enjoy working with openminded people looking to create better health and wellness by helping them clarify authentic and meaningful health goals and their true motivations, and working back to create daily actions steps doable in their lives today that get results, create habits with joy, and build the wellness they want. We all want to look and feel better, and make daily progress towards our goals. Most of my clients want to move towards their ideal body weight, have more energy for things that matter to them, and feel less stressed out and overwhelmed. They also tend to struggle with motivation to exercise or "eat right".

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 14 years of experience. I specialize in the use of EMDR, BSP (Brain Spotting), Internal Family Systems Therapy as well as RLT, AEDP, DBT, and ERP. I am also an ACE Certified Personal Trainer and Precision Nutrition Certified Nutrition Coach. As a former D1 athlete, my approach to psychotherapy is a holistic one. My clients have specifically appreciated the rate at which they are able to experience benefits from therapy. I work out of two offices, one on Main Street in Newark (within walking distance of University of Delaware), the other in Elkton.
