I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, serving clients in PA, LA, VA, and WV, with over 14 years of experience in behavioral and mental health across various settings, including hospitals, schools, and outpatient facilities. As a Certified Trauma Professional, with extensive and ongoing training and certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I primarily treat clients with ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, grief, and trauma. My therapeutic approach is centered on tackling current issues with practical solutions that improve your well-being. It involves holding you accountable and providing the insights you need, rather than what you might want to hear. I recognize that no textbook or degree can rival first-hand experience. Bearing in mind that I may not fully grasp my client's personal experiences, I excel at offering a professional and personable perspective, maintaining an open mind, and always remembering that my clients are the experts on their own lives. The evidence-based treatment modalities that I use in session, are solely determined by my client's individual needs and personal goals. I appreciate research and utilize only evidence-based treatment modalities that have proven to be effective. Life's tough and oftentimes, the demands of daily life can become overwhelming, leading to feelings of defeat, exhaustion, and stress that impact one's relationships, job performance, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. Whatever it may be that you are going through, be encouraged to know that you certainly are not alone. I am here and I am here to help.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I have a strong passion for helping others discover their inner strengths and capabilities and identifying the root causes of their emotional distress and difficulties. I firmly believe that progress is unattainable without first achieving this crucial step, in addition to building a therapeutic alliance. During our first session, you will have plenty of time to acquaint me with what brings you to therapy. For example, you will explain to me what your goals are and together, we will develop a plan of action and determine the most effective method to monitor your progress. We will discuss scheduling to identify the days and times that are most convenient for you. Rest assured, each and every single one of your questions will be addressed prior to the closing of our session. Should questions or concerns arise between sessions, we will discuss the methods available to contact me during that time and the expected timeframe for a response. We will also cover the necessary steps to take in the event of a crisis. It is important to note that I currently offer exclusively telehealth services. Consequently, individuals who lack access to a private and secure space for our sessions would not be suitable candidates at this time. Ensuring the security and comfort of my clients is my foremost priority. Despite the convenience of telehealth, it is not the best option for those who have limited privacy. I would strongly advise you to meet with your therapist in person or to seek telehealth services once you have sufficient privacy.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I take great pride in my ability to guide my clients towards a point where they feel prepared to conclude their therapy journey. Considering that each individual is on a unique journey, I've observed that when my clients start to regularly apply the tools they've acquired during our sessions, and they do so effectively, it's a sign they may be ready for maintenance sessions or even discharge. It's important to me that my clients recognize that therapy doesn't prevent life's challenges, however upon completion, they should feel empowered to handle whatever comes their way.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This treatment modality is proven to be effective with those experiencing challenges with depression, anxiety/panic disorders, mood disorders, phobias, anger issues, and relationship issues. CBT helps with compartmentalizing one's current thought, identifying how their current thought process is negatively impacting their psychological wellbeing and identifying effective ways to change the distorted thought and behavioral patterns.

Strength-Based

This therapeutic method empowers my clients to take charge of their lives. It aids them in recognizing their strengths and attributes, exploring solutions, and acquainting themselves with available resources, all while preserving their dignity and autonomy.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

This treatment modality is great with helping my clients to identify their current life stressors and exploring solutions to solve each one, while holding themselves accountable. It supports their unique and personalized action plan which assists them with implementing the change they desire to improve their quality of life.
