Great to meet you!

Hi, my name is Ally and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with OCD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal is to create a supportive and understanding space where you can feel comfortable sharing your experiences. Together, we’ll work on practical tools and strategies that fit your unique needs, so you can find relief, feel more balanced, and move forward in the direction you want for your life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative and supportive. I primarily utilize CBT, ERP, and EMDR to help clients build practical skills, reduce distress, and process difficult experiences. I offer a warm and inviting space where clients feel comfortable sharing openly. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or ready for growth, our sessions will focus on building resilience and creating lasting change. I believe in walking alongside clients for their journey and using the client's strengths and my skills to help them achieve their goals and experience personal change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, my focus is on getting to know you and understanding what feels most important in your life right now. We’ll talk about what led you to therapy, what you hope to gain from it, and start to shape goals together. I aim to create a space that feels safe, welcoming, and free of judgment, where you can share openly and feel heard. By the end of our first session, you’ll have a sense of what it’s like to work with me and we’ll have some starting points for the journey ahead.
