Great to meet you!

If you've had one too many uncomfortable moments, or are sick-and-tired of being sick-and-tired, join me in a time and space that is compassionate, confidential, and empowering. I meet with adults in many life phases from college to retirement.

I am licensed in the state of Pennsylvania as a professional counselor. I am also board certified with an advanced addiction designation. I offer nearly 20 years of therapy practice addressing issues related to addiction, depression, ocd, anxiety, men's issues, and bi-polar.

My approach to therapy

I am an anti-AI therapist. I do not use AI to assist with my documentation or for any other reason related to our sessions or my work. I think counseling is its most effective when humans are relentlessly authentic.

I think there are strong connections between your current thoughts and mood, your relationships, how you manage stress, your lived childhood experiences, persisting chronic issues, and other unspoken needs. Having a dedicated time for you to freely review these factors with me, someone who works to be objective and supportive, often creates solutions.

What you can expect from me

Our first meeting will be a relaxed and welcoming conversation. This helps to set a tone of exploration to identify the needs you want to address and confirm that I would be a good fit as someone with whom you can work.
