As a counselor, my goal is to inspire actualized change. A large part of that process is forming a strong working relationship to determine where you find fulfillment, derive meaning, and how you exist in the here and now. I'm a firm believer that the worldview we hold and the narratives we perpetuate dictate how we navigate life's nuances so, we often start there. Once we strip the old stories and ego, what are we left with? On the other side of anger, self-doubt, anxiety, self-criticism, depression, grief, addiction, or whatever your concerns may be—Who are you? I'm excited to embark on the journey to that state of being with you.

Do you or a family member feel that life is so difficult and everything you try appears to be falling apart at the seam. Disappointment, hurt, grief and anger can morph into complicated unwanted behavior if left unresolved. Depression, anxiety, panic attacks, eating and sleep disorders can arise when life circumstances are overwhelmingly stressful. Over the years the feedback that I have received from clients is: that I am warm, caring, understanding, easy to talk to; willing to help you tell your story by asking the questions that bring out your inner voice and easily reached by phone or text.

I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, relationships, spirituality, body image, and life transitions.
We all have the potential to feel better than we do, even when life seems alright on the surface. But if you're here, chances are something hasn’t felt quite right for a while. The good news is, that can change, and often more easily than you expect.

I use many tools, including cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, relational communication, positive thinking, spirituality and specialized trauma approaches (EMDR).
There is one Self and a shared consciousness deep within. At the same time, we live in a world of diversity and individual uniqueness. Psychotherapy now has the tools to assist in the journey to uncover the genuine “you”,that is, the person you have been looking to be all your life. Layers of conditioning have separated you from the self within. Mindfulness, trauma work and self-compassion provide the support and pathways to clear out wasteful thinking, worries, depression, obsessions and addictions which keep you unbalanced and discontent. Additionally, relational communication skills will build your connectedness and boundaries.

Currently, I work with clients who desire to be full participants in their own health and healing process. My clients are "seekers" by nature -- often on a spiritual quest. Many of my clients have already had years of previous therapy. They do not come to me to work on a "problem." They come to understand their role in the problem, to resolve it, and to learn from it. My "typical" client is someone who wants to transform suffering into meaning and bring purpose to it. Many of my clients are interested in using narrative or storytelling to tell or "rewrite" the stories of their lives.

Life transitions can create extreme stress as well as profound opportunity. Relationships that we depend on; with our spouse, parents, children, colleagues inevitably change and may benefit from a fresh perspective. My expertise enables us to examine these relationships with compassion, facilitating insight that can lead to change. I received a doctorate in psychology and religion as well as formal training in individual, marriage and family therapy. I have 25+ years of experience offering relational psychotherapy to individuals, couples, families and groups.

I am a depth psychologist practicing in Pennsylvania and remotely in 36 states via PsyPact. It may be that an external life event has left you feeling disoriented or, perhaps, you are confronted by an inner feeling of emptiness or agitation that is difficult to ignore. The common thread of suffering runs through all of our lives. Symptoms, and other manifestations of our psychological life, contain an important message. Deciphering the symbols of the psyche, via thoughts, feelings, memories, dreams and lived experience, allows us to lead a more balanced and meaningful life.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
