Welcome! I have over 2 decades of experience helping people achieve their health and happiness goals and improving their quality of life. I am an LPC practicing in the state of PA. I have been working in this capacity for over 11 years and prior to becoming a licensed clinician, I worked for 13 years guiding clients with weight loss and health goals. I take a holistic approach to counseling. Everything is connected, body mind and spirit and together we will work on finding you peace and congruency throughout.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
On our first session we will explore what brought you to counseling. We will discuss timelines of events, family and relationships. We will explore your basic health habits and history: nutrition, activities, sleep, beliefs and any health conditions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I genuinely care about your wellbeing. I will listen without judgement and I will challenge you to be your best self.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize CBT with my clients to recognize their negative thought distortions and how it is impacting their ability to be present in their lives, move forward with their goals and have healthy relationships.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
EFT teaches us where our responses to conflict or challenges come from. Do you withdraw or become defensive? Understanding our reactions, how they impact our ability to connect to one another to improve relationships.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
The use of DBT to help clients recognize their emotional dysregulation and develop effective skills to better manage the emotional roller coaster that can impact relationships, health and happiness
