As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I bring over 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My clinical expertise centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, stress management, and addiction recovery. I specialize in addressing life transitions, panic disorders, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and process addictions. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I have extensive experience working with veterans, individuals struggling with depression, and those managing seasonal affective disorder. I'm committed to helping clients explore their life purpose, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and build sustainable emotional resilience. Through evidence-based practices and a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower clients to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, positive changes. My goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your challenges and discover your inner strengths.

Welcome. Well, as you might know, there are times when we encounter challenges to the difficulties or changes in our life circumstances. While we are able to resolve some of those challenges on our own or by talking about them with close friends and family members, there are other times when we need some professional help. You may have found yourself in such a situation, so, thank you for reaching out. I am here to help. I am licensed in both Ohio and Pennsylvania, and for over 29 years, I have been helping people of all ages as a professional clinical counselor. I offer a supportive atmosphere so as to help to reduce any feelings of depression, anger, stress or anxiety. I also help to develop more rational, confident ways of thinking. My treatment style is active, instructive, and informative. I use an integrative approach to therapy as I draw primarily upon cognitive-behavioral, family systems and psychodynamic theories as needed. Additionally, I offer strategies for parents who are finding that they are having behavior difficulties with their children. In our first session together, I will most likely be asking you a lot of questions to find out more about you and to more fully understand what you are hoping to accomplish or resolve during our time together. Since counseling has a direction and is goal-oriented, developing a general idea of goals in your therapy with me will set the tone and the focus for the next session, as well as the direction of the counseling process itself. So, if you are ready for some new ways to manage your feelings or behavior and, ultimately, your life, I look forward to working with you.

I am a licensed therapist in the states of New Hampshire, Utah, and Pennsylvania, with 30 years of professional experience. I have worked extensively with clients experiencing addictions and other compulsive maladaptive behaviors; as well as with clients with symptoms of depression, anxiety, and issues related to grief and loss, meaning and purpose; and experiences that would be typically categorized as unusual or paranormal. At Betterhelp I am limiting my practice specifically to working with individuals who are experiencing maladaptive behaviors such as substance abuse/dependence, or sexual/ gambling addictions that are causing difficulties in a client's life; or to clients who have experienced trauma, confusion, anxiety, or depression related to things that may not be easy to process - like anomalous, paranormal, near-death, UFO, and other unusual experiences. There might be apprehension about sharing these experiences with a health care professional, but I am here to help eliminate that apprehension. These types of experiences (like NDE) can be both powerful and enlightening, but also confusing and disturbing at times. If you have had these types of experiences, and would like to explore them in a safe space, please consider me. Taking steps to explore, process, and integrate these personal experiences takes courage, but can also be very therapeutic and healing. I am here to support you in that process.

Your story is an adventure, full of challenges and discoveries. In a safe, affirming space, I help you navigate anxiety, trauma, or identity questions, build resilience, and step forward into a life that feels more joyful, authentic, and true to you.
