Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I've been working in the mental health field for over 15 years. I help people identify their triggers, delve into their past to learn about how their thoughts affect their behaviors. I try to help people feel confident in their ability to overcome life's challenges and normalize emotions. My clients gain insight into themselves and learn how to effectively cope with emotional reactions to different situations, which improves their mental well-being.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I like to learn about why you're seeking counseling so we can identify goals and then make a plan to work towards meeting those goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in the field with a variety of presenting problems, my greatest strength is the ability to listen and normalize human emotion. Too often clients think there is "something wrong" with them because emotions can be uncomfortable. Sometimes people need to know that it is okay to feel what they feel.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been utilizing CBT for over 15 years in both private practice and in general mental health and behavioral work. Helping individuals and couples identify how their thoughts relate to their emotions and influence their behaviors, bridges the disconnect that tends to occur when people become so consumed by negative thoughts and beliefs, that it begins to affect how they perceive situations and relationships. The work is done between therapy sessions, and I provide you with the tools you need to work through your negative thoughts so you can improve your emotional well-being and behavioral reactions.
On average, Golden Rule clients pay $0-$126
