Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from the state of Pennsylvania. I believe everyone is on a journey towards healing. Do you struggle with emotional pain, stuck patterns, or distressing memories that just won’t go away? I specialize in helping individuals—adults and children—heal and thrive through transformative approaches such as EMDR, IFS, and Music Therapy. I am passionate about helping individuals through their healing journey with EMDR.

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

I bring authenticity and a sense of humor to my sessions. 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 may struggle with a history of trauma/PTSD, 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. I love working with first responders. I also help clients with emotional issues or changes in life-events.
