Therapists in Confluence, PA

I help people dealing with anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or communication challenges. I work with adolescents and adults, employing components of schema therapy, relational therapy, CBT, and DBT. Leveraging my training as a yoga teacher, I gently guide clients in understanding the mind-body connection for trauma recovery.

I provide a safe place for clients to learn how to deal with life’s stressors related to marriages/partnerships, families, friendships, social isolation, past and current trauma, employment and finances without judgment. I help adult client's actively practice what they learn in our sessions so they can better manage their emotions and tolerate daily situations. I treat clients with multiple diagnoses including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline and narcissistic personality disorders.

Life is a journey and we are constantly learning about ourselves, others, and our surroundings. At times, we all need help and my goal is to support you when you are ready to seek help. I believe in meeting and starting where YOU are at in your journey. With over 9 years of experience in mental health and medical social work, my areas of expertise include: reproductive health, trauma, complex medical, grief, depression, and anxiety, amongst other areas. I am LGTBQIA+ affirming. I have worked with a variety of populations, and specializing in working with individuals 18 years and older.

Will I ever be good enough?....Maybe I AM the crazy one?... Have you had these thoughts? Are you anxious, depressed, a chronic people pleaser? Have your "loved ones" blamed you for "everything that is wrong"? Do you hate the way they act around you, but then a few memories of when they were nice make you feel guilty for having those thoughts (cognitive dissonance)? This is all normal if you have experienced narcissistic abuse or emotionally immature parents. This is where I come in. Healing is a real possibility. You deserve it and I'm dedicated to helping you move from surviving to thriving!

Hello all! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Pennsylvania with years of experience working with individuals who struggle with dual diagnoses and/or severe mental health disorders.

Hello, and Congrats on taking your first step towards self-improvement! My main approaches are cognitive and trauma therapies. Our thoughts, our beliefs, and even our inner voice strongly shape our emotions. When unfortunate events happen in our lives, we try our best to make sense of these events and what our lives have now become. As we adjust our thoughts and beliefs, our emotions have to follow. I combine CBT, trauma therapy, brief/solution focused, and EMDR. I work with traumas, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, toxic work places, toxic relationships, adjusting to changes in life, and low self confidence.

Do you sometimes feel disconnected from everything and everyone? Are you struggling to love yourself or to maintain healthy connections with the people you care about? Are you struggling with grief, loss, or the negative effects of past experiences? Do you feel anxious, worried and fearful? You are not alone. And the process of therapy can help you make the connections that have gone unacknowledged between your past experience and present struggles, and develop tools and strategies to help you heal the past, learn to cope with the present, and feel prepared to step into your life and relationships happier and healing.

I believe that one of the bravest things that you can do is to understand your own story. You are the expert on yourself, and I would like to work collaboratively with you to understand and identify connections within your story. My therapeutic orientation is client-centered, strength-based, holistic, and eclectic. I tailor my approach to you and your wants and/or needs. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of growth and healing. I strive to develop an open, safe, and trusting therapeutic relationship.

I have been most helpful with clients who have clear goals or specific issues they want to address. I can work with you in a brief, specific and time-limited ways to help faciliate problem-solving and behavioral changes as needed. I can also work with you long-term to address chronic or longer standing issues of past trauma, family conflict, or issues with self and identity. Most importantly, I work collaboratively to help you meet your own needs by matching the treatment modality and plan with your stated needs and learning/attachment style. I am direct and honest, but always with permission and gentleness. I respect and value all.

Change can come in many forms in our lives. It might come suddenly like a tidal wave, or gradually like a slow dripping leak. It might come in the form of devastating tragedy, difficult choices, broken relationships, or even new opportunities. Although change can be extremely hard, it can also be extremely necessary. Experiencing anything great in life requires us to challenge ourselves to push past our comfort zones. However, we oftentimes avoid change out of fear of the unknown, or self-doubt. Other times, we don’t realize the need for change until we experience pain.

I believe that true mastery of ourselves is within each and every one of us. Each person is unique and this means they have something to offer the world. Sometimes it is a matter of getting out of your own way to see just how unique you really are. I have many years of experience working with people with a wide range of challenges. We will collaboratively work to utilize your strengths and enhance your coping skills. I work with each individual in addressing their primary challenges by constructing an individual goal plan that is in accordance with conquering your biggest challenges and becoming the best version of yourself.

If your emotions feel overwhelming, and they're trying to signal you that they need your attention, I am here to help you. I provide a safe, comfortable space to explore who you are and work with you to provide a better understanding of you. I am here to help you learn to identify and access your feelings. I offer encouragement to help you get to your goals. With me, you can speak openly and fully about your anxieties and fears. I'd love to help you find your purpose in life by helping you recognize your strengths.

When you’re ready to begin your journey to the best version of you, I’ll be ready to support and empower you to take your next step forward. Hope to hear from you and take care.
