I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 20 years of experience in the mental health field, and I am energized by helping people reach their goals and potential. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, addiction, grief, and life transitions. I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Pittsburgh and have gained extensive experience working in homes, schools, communities, partial hospitalization, and outpatient treatment programs.

My professional background enables me to provide the support and guidance you may be seeking. I use multiple treatment approaches that are tailored to meet your needs and preferences, such as brief treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavior therapy, and family therapy.

I believe your emotional well-being significantly impacts your overall life experience. If you’re going through a hard time, I am confident I can meet you where you are on your journey and help you accomplish your goals. Whether you have hit a bump in the road or are ready to address a difficult issue, I am here to help you through whatever struggles you may
