Great to meet you!

Hi. I’m an LCSW based in Pennsylvania with a master’s degree from University of Maryland. I have 24 years of counseling experience.

Treatment areas of focus include trauma, grief issues, adjustment and transition challenges, anxiety, and depression. A large number of my clients struggle with symptoms of PTSD, complex trauma, and stressor-related disorders.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am a person-centered and strength-based therapist with a belief in the inherent wisdom within all of us. My goal is to partner with clients to uncover those strengths and unrealized potential, and work through barriers to living a full and purposeful life.

I am a certified EMDR therapist and use EMDR often due to its high rate of efficacy.

Other modalities of treatment include somatic experiencing, Mindfulness, Internal family systems and CBT.

What you can expect from our first session

After an initial/Intake session,

follow up sessions build on the therapy goals established together. We will address symptoms/concerns, develop tools for coping, address barriers to improvement, celebrate improvements, and do the work that leads to healing and thriving. Sessions are a mutual collaboration between client and therapist and there is the flexibility to address unexpected challenges as they arise.
