New to Grow
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. My expertise is working with adolescents while having a thorough understanding of the school system. Providing counseling in a school setting helped me to learn not only the needs of school students, but the needs of students in the community.
My goal is always to meet you where you are most comfortable by providing a low pressure setting and go at your pace.
I truly love working with adolescents and my passion shows in the progress they make in counseling.
My expertise is mainly in serving children in adolescence. I have experience providing therapy to middle school students in the school setting. My approach is warm and comforting, providing a safe space to open up about issues in a nonjudgmental environment. I often try to use humor with my clients to settle any nerves and level out the power dynamics.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I primarily have experience working with middle school students in a school setting. CBT was used mostly to help reframe thinking process and relating it to our emotions and behavior. Adolescents experience a high variety of emotions and often need help managing their feelings and ongoing stressors.
