About me

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice is deeply committed to creating a compassionate, affirming space for clients navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and significant life transitions.

I specialize in helping individuals explore self-love, improve communication, and address workplace dynamics, social anxiety, and personal growth. My approach is particularly attuned to supporting older adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those experiencing midlife challenges, career difficulties, and caregiver stress.

My therapeutic work centers on empowering clients to develop resilient coping strategies, rebuild self-esteem, and discover meaningful pathways forward. Whether you're confronting panic attacks, financial pressures, or navigating profound life changes, I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences and strengths.

I'm dedicated to walking alongside you as you build greater self-understanding, emotional balance, and personal agency.
