You can change your life. You can become the person that you want to be. Sometimes it takes hard work, usually it means being uncomfortable. But if you are willing to do that work, you can meet your goals. I would love the opportunity to support you on your journey. I have spent over 20 years committed to this belief and committed to helping individuals along their way. My true passion is helping those who have a history of trauma and helping them learn how it has impacted their lives. Empowering individuals take their power back from whatever it is that they have survived. Trauma is such a vague word, and many things can fall into that category. No trauma is too severe, or too insignificant. I am a licensed counselor in Pennsylvania. My Bachelor’s and master’s degrees are both in Professional Counseling from Toccoa Falls College and Liberty University. I have spent the majority of my career working with adults from all walks of life. Making people feel safe and comfortable is utmost priority for me. I have an eclectic approach using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Person Centered. I have trauma informed and focused on all my interactions no matter what approach is being used. Additionally, I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy. In my personal life I am a mom, stepmom, dog mom, caregiver, and survivor myself. I love to cook, travel, and use creativity around my house. I look forward to having an opportunity to work with you.

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes, working with a qualified mental health professional can offer meaningful support.

Pennsylvania is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities. Online therapy makes it easier to connect with a therapist near you without being limited to nearby offices.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you ensures that your provider meets state licensing requirements and professional standards in Pennsylvania (PA).

People seek therapy for many reasons. Some are navigating ongoing mental health concerns, while others want guidance during stressful periods or major life transitions. You do not need a mental health diagnosis to work with a therapist. Many individuals seek therapy to improve communication, strengthen relationships, manage stress, or gain greater self-awareness.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Pennsylvania, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?
