About me

I am a Professional Counselor licensed in the state of Pennsylvania with over 16 years of experience working with people of all ages and families. I currently have two private practice offices in two different counties. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: depression, anxiety, anger management, family/parenting, DMDD , ADHD and Personality Disorders. I have also helped many people who have suffered from traumas related to physical, sexual and emotional abuse as well as PTSD symptoms. I have worked with adoptive families experiencing attachment issues.

My counseling style is very interactive and I believe in helping all people with a respectful, compassionate and nonjudgemental style. My approach is eclectic; as I use pieces of different modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy. I will tailor our treatment plan to meet your needs.

I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you to the best of my ability!
