Great to meet you!

I am an LMFT working in Lancaster as Clinical Intake Coordinator for MHALA and providing psychotherapy for individuals. I have worked in multiple setting ranging from schools and community mental health to private settings. I have extensive history working with individuals experiencing psychotic symptoms and crisis situations. I have worked with school age children, with a focus on neurodivergent individuals, focusing on family relationships and life skills.

My approach to therapy

I offer a client-centered approach with a focus on solutions. Together we can build a plan and set it into action. Goals are based on client needs, with a focus engagement and what the client can control. Trauma and family dynamics are my forte. You can expect to work on goals at your pace but I will push you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session would mainly be an introductory meeting to set goals and get to know each other a little bit. I normally like to get to know the individual and explore history and goals in therapy. We will also work on setting boundaries and schedules.
