Therapist

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and genuine connection. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate life's challenges.

My professional background includes working with individuals who've experienced domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma,and emotional dysregulation. I tailor treatment to each person's unique needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches while recognizing that every client's journey is different.

I earned my degree in Social Work from Temple University and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am committed to ongoing professional development and providing care that is culturally responsive, affirming, and client-centered.

Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season, working through past experiences, or looking to build healthier coping strategies, I strive to help you identify your strengths, develop practical tools, and move toward the life you want to create.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I look forward to the opportunity to support you along the way.

I help women explore and define their dating identity while building the confidence to navigate relationships authentically. Through assertiveness and boundary-setting skills, I empower clients to communicate their needs clearly and confidently. I also provide psychoeducation on relationships of all kinds, helping clients better understand themselves and their connections with others.

I’m especially passionate about supporting and affirming clients with complex or multicultural identities. My favorite part of this work is helping clients strengthen their self-esteem so they can move through the world with greater confidence and self-acceptance. Whether we’re destigmatizing sexuality, challenging body image myths, or building a stronger sense of self, I love seeing clients thrive with pride in who they are and the knowledge to carry them forward.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Allentown

Finding the right therapist in Allentown starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or a life transition, choosing a licensed provider (such as an LPC, LCSW, or psychologist) who has experience with your specific concerns can make a meaningful difference. Consider what matters most to you — a particular therapy style like CBT or EMDR, availability that fits your schedule, or the option to meet virtually or in person.

With hundreds of therapists practicing across the Lehigh Valley, narrowing your options can feel like a project in itself. Reading a provider's bio is one of the best ways to understand their approach and decide if they might be a good match. Details like their areas of focus, years of experience, and session style can help you feel more confident before your first appointment.

Therapy in Allentown can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options are available when you use your in-network benefits. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your needs and your budget.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
