UnitedHealthcare UHC | UBH Therapists in Haverford, PA

Are you struggling with overwhelming emotions or persistent negative thoughts? Maybe you're finding it hard to express your needs to loved ones, or you're feeling stuck in a cycle of anxiety and depression. I primarily focus on treating anxiety, depression, & mood disorders while also supporting clients with coping skills development, life transitions, substance use, & relationship issues. My focus is to help you regain control over your emotions, find lasting relief from emotional distress, and achieve a sense of inner peace and happiness.

Struggling with overwhelming emotions or constant anxiety? Are you finding it hard to break free from negative thinking patterns & triggers? I’m here to help. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I specialize in treating Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. My goal is to support you in managing your thoughts & feelings, reducing distress, and achieving a sense of inner calm and happiness. I understand that navigating life’s challenges can feel daunting, especially if you’re unsure where to start.

I am experienced in depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relational conflict, family systems, addiction, criminal justice, anger management, eating disorders/body image, and mood disorders. The ideal client actively wants to explore their behaviors and thinking patterns and identify the underlying causes of these behaviors. In addition, the ideal client will be willing to tackle goals inside & outside therapy sessions. My ideal client would be an individual who is internally and externally motivated to change their life. They show up to sessions on time consistently and make a conscious effort to engage in the therapeutic process.

My ideal client struggles with Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, Trauma, and/or related conditions. They are motivated for change or at least open to the possibility of change. They are open to feedback and willing to lean into the therapeutic process. They do not need to have clear goals for the therapeutic process right away but are willing to work to identify these goals in the treatment process. They would want to improve their life in some way, or even just their relationship with themselves.

Life is often filled with many challenges that can feel overwhelming. I strive to provide a supportive environment for you to share your story, explore your thoughts and feelings as well as learn techniques to manage your symptoms. I have a strong foundation in Trauma-informed practices and have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, having worked with children, teens, adults and families. I hold a Trauma Certificate from Drexel University Behavioral Healthcare Education and am a Certified Trauma Competent Professional through Lakeside Global Institute.

If you're looking for a therapist because of depression, anxiety, stress, or difficulty adapting to a new season in life whether that's related to work, school, relationships, parenting, loss/grief, or a new medical diagnosis, I am here to help. I view therapy as a safe, non-biased, and non-judgmental place to express your thoughts and feelings. A place where one can seek clarity, peace, and healing.

Congratulations on taking the crucial step of searching for a therapist. It’s often the hardest part of the journey—navigating through numerous profiles to find someone who feels right, who will listen, and who you can trust. Everyone needs connection and support at different points in their lives, and you've just made a significant move toward finding that. I work with clients who are seeking to change the things they cannot accept and to find peace with the things they cannot change. Together, we’ll explore your challenges and aspirations, aiming for meaningful progress and acceptance.

You are suffering & you are not sure how to get through it. No matter how these things are showing up for you, I am here to help you feel heard & to build the skills to get you through this!
