Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my Master's degree from Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia. I have 3 years of experience, helping adolescents and adults who are struggling to cope with the effects of mental health disorders, traumatic events, difficult situations or drastic life changes. I have helped my clients increased their ability to cope effectively and increase daily functioning.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, we would focus on building rapport, Brief introduction of Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT) and identifying treatment goals and problematic/dangerous behaviors.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with adolescents and adults, I have developed a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients, by demonstrating empathy and a non-judgmental stance, providing clients a safe space to be themselves and express their feelings, increasing client's receptiveness and willingness to treatment.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with individuals who are willing to work towards increasing their motivation to make the appropriate changes to achieve their goals and a life worth living.

Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have three years of experience utilizing Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT), to support individuals with increasing their ability to cope effectively when dealing with emotional dysregulation. I utilize DBT to support individuals who want to achieve a life worth living. The main focus in therapy is to teach clients a set of skills based on mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness and emotion regulation. DBT skills help clients understand and accept difficult feelings leading to problem or self-injurious behaviors and relationship conflicts. DBT skills have helped clients learn effective communication, replace or challenge dysfunctional thinking patterns, improve maladaptive behaviors, increase ability to focus on the present moment to reduce anxiety, increase ability to tolerate and cope with life stressors leading to distress, increase their ability to regulate their emotions on their own, etc...
Psychoeducation
I used psychoeducation to help my client understand their diagnosis and address misperceptions that can often lead to feelings of hopelessness. Psychoeducation has helped my clients understand the relationship between their diagnosis and the way they handle and react to their emotions.
