Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Forty Fort, PA

Life can become overwhelming, sometimes we forget it is a work in progress. The last few years have been a wild ride! Detours can happen making it easy to forget that the detours may be necessary to help us move forward. I enjoy having the privilege of helping individuals reach their full potential by helping to recognize their strengths through therapeutic intervention, self care, identifying coping strategies and learning to stay in the moment. The work can be difficult but that does not mean there may not be laughter, tears and progress.

I offer a therapeutic space uniquely tailored to meet each client's needs, fostering a non-judgmental, safe, supportive, yet challenging environment. I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds, often those feeling simply 'stuck'. My goal is to empower you to move forward and achieve personal growth. Therapy is a transformative vehicle for change, offering self-acceptance and healing from the wounds that life can inflict upon us at times. Together, we will address symptom management, occupational and educational issues, interpersonal conflicts, self-esteem, trauma, grief, and goal setting.

Sometimes life presents challenges that seem overwhelming. Emotional baggage is heavy and old belief systems can become outdated or irrelevant to who you are today. In a compassionate and objective setting we'll begin to redefine the old beliefs that may be keeping you from reaching your full potential. Whether it's a single life event, or a perpetual problem you are looking to resolve, it would be my privilege to walk with you on your journey.
