I’m deeply committed to providing nonjudgmental, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed care. I understand that mental health isn’t one-size-fits-all, and I take the time to listen, learn, and adapt to what works best for you.

I don’t expect perfection — I expect real people, with real experiences, showing up as they are. I bring not only clinical expertise but also lived understanding of how layered and complex healing can be. You’ll never have to shrink or code-switch in my care — your story, identity, and truth are all welcome here.

One of my greatest assets is, I Recognize Un-Nurtured Pain. I have 17 years of experience as a clinical counselor. I deem myself an energetic, empathetic, resourceful, and compassionate counseling professional with proven ability to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I fully grasp the emotional and residual effects of how unresolved childhood issues, chemical substance abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety, and PTSD impact one’s daily life. Moreover, the low self-esteem, decreased self-worth, powerlessness, and hopelessness those issues incite.

It’s exhausting to live a life that feels more like a performance than an experience. You may feel heavy with the weight of "doing"—meeting expectations while losing the quiet essence of "being." Whether navigating the hollow ache of loss, the fog of depression, or the echoes of trauma, I know how it feels to be a stranger to yourself. Therapy begins when you decide you can no longer just "push through." We move forward by creating space for your pain to be heard. It's a journey of reclamation: stripping away the noise to rediscover the resilient, authentic soul that has been waiting for you all along.

Happy patient looking away

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 Pittsburgh

Finding the right therapist in Pittsburgh starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want help with a specific concern — like anxiety, depression, ADHD, or relationship challenges — or broader support during a life transition. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your particular needs. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they might be a good match.

Pittsburgh has a large and varied mental health provider community, with therapists practicing across neighborhoods from Oakland and Shadyside to the North Shore and South Side. Some providers offer in-person sessions, while others see patients virtually — or both. Practical factors like scheduling, location, and whether a provider offers a free introductory phone consultation can make a real difference in finding someone you feel comfortable with.

Therapy in Pittsburgh can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Many patients pay as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
