LPC, 12 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
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 12 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.
On our first session we will explore what brought you to counseling. We will discuss timelines of events, family and relationships. We will discuss your basic health habits and history: nutrition, activities, sleep, beliefs and any health conditions.
I genuinely care about your wellbeing. I will listen without judgement and I will challenge you to be your best self.
Life can change on a dime; health, relationships and work to name a few. These can leave us questioning everything, from our place in this world to what our future can possibly look like when everything is different. Providing you with the tools and support to adjust your perspective, utilize your resilience and forge a new version of a successful, happy life is my goal. I believe in a holistic approach which respects the importance of a healthy mind, body, and spirit. My client base includes individuals with chronic illness and pain, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD and stage of life issues.
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.
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.
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
MI Emphasizes collaboration and respects the autonomy of the individual. Helps you to explore your motivations and overcome ambivelance to change and helps you to make decisions that are best for yourself.
