Hi there! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I am also a Board-Certified Art Therapist! I received my Masters from Cedar Crest College and have been practicing for 6 years. I help children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and loss explore their emotions and learn new skills to better cope with their experiences. I utilize both talk therapy and creative interventions, when clients are open to it!
Our first session together will be spent establishing rapport and building a relationship. I want to get to know you, understand what is leading you to seek support, and begin identifying what you would like to work on in sessions.
I have experience working with a wide variety of people, who have sought support for many different needs. I create a warm, welcoming environment for clients to feel comfortable to express themselves and explore their emotions.
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help clients understand their thought process and reframe these processes.
I utilize a trauma-informed perspective when working with clients, understanding that what happens to us can deeply impact how we think and feel.
The grieving process is complex, impacting one's emotional, physical, social, and spiritual health. I encourage clients to explore the complexity of their grief in an open, empathetic way.
I draw upon each individual's strengths to encourage their own personal growth and recognize each person's unique potential for growth.
