People typically seek treatment because something in their life isn't working as they wish it was. Often this is frustrating, sad, and isolating. I partner with clients to dig in and figure out what's working and what's not, and create a path forward to a life that feels more fulfilled and on their terms. I provide a warm, safe space to explore how a client got to the place of seeking help, and a direct, solutions-oriented approach to implementing skills, and reparenting unhelpful behaviors that no longer serve the client.

I also have over 15 years experience working with those suffering from depression, anxiety and severe mental illness.

Currently hiring therapists in PA and NY. My goal is to provide effective, comprehensive treatment to individuals struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, PTSD, and co-occurring diagnoses. I use evidence-based treatment to help individuals recover, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), prolonged exposure therapy (PE), and exposure response prevention therapy (ERP). I strive to help my clients accept their body’s natural shape, no longer experience intense negative emotions due to weight or food, stop compromising their physical or emotional health, and cope with negative emotions in healthy ways.

"You cannot change or heal what you do not acknowledge." (Unknown) I believe in utilizing therapy as an opportunity to assist individuals, couples, and families in acknowledging and overcoming barriers to healing and change. I create an authentic, collaborative and non-judgmental therapeutic space where clients are able to address areas in life that aren't working (anxiety, anger, depression, low self-esteem, relationships, painful experiences); to explore and resolve the internal and relational barriers that limits healing and personal growth; and to create an action plan that empowers clients to live out their full potential.

My primary focus of therapeutic services is to provide a conducive, safe, and confidential format that will ensure personal growth. Enabling the individual to regain functional capabilities which is the ultimate goal. In order to regain functionality and growth individuals in therapeutic settings may have to discuss pleasant/unpleasant aspects of their lives and may experience uncomfortable feelings such as anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, hatred, anger, and frustration. However, through counseling, clients learn how to appreciate themselves, make better decisions and become more open about themselves and the world they live in.
