About me

Hello all! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Pennsylvania with years of experience working with individuals who struggle with dual diagnoses and/or severe mental health disorders. Feeling like no one will understand you and that there is no hope for the future can make starting therapy that much harder, but together we can change that. My therapeutic approach is driven by my passion to help future clients learn how to manage their symptoms, how to stand up for themselves, and finally, how to thrive.
