Wormleysburg, PA 17043
As a trainined EMDR therapist, I have extensive experience in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, family and interpersonal conflict, chronic pain and more.
Life is a collection of experiences, opportunities and human connections that shape who we become and how we view the world. Fostering that journey while respecting individual beliefs and values and their capacity for resiliency is at the core of my work. I have been passionately working to assist individuals, families and couples for over 20 years.

My therapeutic style is derived from a variety of modalities, including EMDR, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and solutions-focused.
I am trained in EMDR and specialize in supporting parents as they navigate through prenatal and postpartum needs, birth trauma, NICU experiences, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Transitioning into each stage of life is not easy and often doesn’t match the picture of what you thought it would be. The disconnect between what you had hoped for and your current experience may lead to feelings of devastation, confusion, isolation, and even shame. You are not alone and it does get better. We will work together to find your happiness.

As a psychotherapist I utilize several different treatment modalities in my approach to working with trauma, one of these is EMDR.
I understand the importance of finding a therapist that is a good fit for you and how challenging that search can feel. My primary focus as your therapist is that you feel understood and seen. I work to provide a safe space for you to feel heard, and a space where it is safe to challenge yourself. We will work within this safe space to make connections regarding how your past impacts your present life and with this awareness we will strive to find peace in the present.

I am trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR and integrate these models for powerful trauma processing and self-exploration.
I work with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, life transitions, and relationship issues. I understand how trauma, childhood attachment, family of origin dynamics, and harm within our social/cultural/political systems underly many of these struggles. And I know how these painful experiences can disconnect you from yourself, your loved ones, and the joys of life. Together, we will explore the patterns that keep you stuck, understand their roots, and learn new ways of navigating life's challenges. Our work will help you restore a sense of agency and reconnection to your authentic, grounded Self that's innate to us all.

I enjoy working with both couples and individuals and utilize multiple modalities from EMDR and CBT to psychodynamic and Reality Therapy.
I approach patient care with the belief that we all have the inner resources needed for healing. Being in therapy does not need to be a life-long process yet one can gain invaluable insight as well as emotional and mental support from working with a seasoned clinician. The therapeutic process should help one to become increasingly more honest with self and ultimately more capable of enjoying life's precious moments.

We all at various times in our lives need a safe space and an objective ear to help us navigate the ups and downs that come with being human. My role as a therapist is to join you on the journey and provide a safe environment where you can learn to explore and reconcile your past, present, and future with self-compassion and curiosity. The counseling process can be a challenging and insightful journey, full of peaks and valleys, but one that can lead to healing change and growth toward meeting your goals.

I am fully trained in EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
I enjoy working with clients who want to get to the root of their struggles. These clients would like to gain insight into their symptoms, something difficult that has happened to them or to explore cycles and patterns that aren’t serving them. The clients I see often have attended therapy in the past. The clients I see also often present with attachment-based traumas, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, and difficulties in their personal and work relationships.

My ideal population is adults struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress, or substance use - however I believe that everyone deserves to have a therapist who is dedicated to them, and I would never turn away a client unless their needs were out of my scope of practice. My ideal client is someone who is motivated for therapy and is willing to learn.
