Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from Northeast Pennsylvania. I received my master's in clinical psychology from Chestnut Hill College. I have been practicing as a counselor for over ten years. I have worked in the field of mental health and substance abuse for over twenty years. I have had the privilege of working with adolescents and adults in outpatient and inpatient settings.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first session, I feel as though it is important to learn about the client and have them feel comfortable. I value a therapeutic relationship and feel as though it is important to make people feel comfortable with identifying health goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in variety of setting provides me with a unique insight into to people and how to assist in their personal goals. I have learned from the people in those environments, whether it be a drug and alcohol setting, or a correctional setting. I have always enjoyed the challenge of connecting with people and learning about their lives and what their personal goals are.

The five basic needs are identified as Power, or a sense of self-worth and achievement. Love and belonging or being part of a family or community of loved ones. Freedom, or independence. Fun, which includes a sense of satisfaction or pleasure, or the comfort of knowing that one's basic needs—food, shelter, and sex—are met.
