Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania with 5 years of experience working with female survivors of trauma and abuse. My passion lies in helping women build healthy relationships, eliminate toxicity from their lives, boost self-esteem, and heal from the deep impacts of trauma. My goal is for every client to come to a deeper understanding of themselves, and to leave therapy with practical skills intended to support them in sustaining their progress long term.
In our first session, I’ll take time to get to know you and understand the specific challenges we’ll work on together. I’ll focus on creating a comfortable and safe space, which is a key part of a trauma-informed approach. We’ll also discuss your expectations for therapy and what you hope to achieve. I’ll use this information to craft a personalized plan to guide our future sessions.
Having worked with female survivors of trauma and abuse, I’m confident in my ability to create a safe, non-judgmental space that fosters healing. I’m dedicated to listening closely to my clients to ensure that the treatment plan is tailored to their unique needs and aligns with the goals they’ve set for themselves.
