Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from the state of Pennsylvania. I received my masters degree from SUNY New Paltz with over 10 years of experience as a therapist. I love helping clients achieve the best version of themselves. My specialties include EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Music Therapy. I look forward to working with you!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I am adept at helping clients reprocess their trauma and change negative self talk into more healthy, positive cognitions. I also help clients gain more adaptive ways of coping with life's issues.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked in the therapy field for over 7 years, I use an assessment process to identify (a) where you may have been stuck in previous therapy (b) utilize an individualized protocol to get results.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with clients who struggle with anxiety and or depression. I find that anxiety and depression can stem from negative self talk or previous trauma. They often feel stuck in this negative self-talk and don't realize that I can empower clients to change that talk.
