LCSW, 8 years of experience
Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Connecticut and Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from the University of New York and have been practicing for 8 years. I enjoy working with individuals to explore the pain of the past, process the uneasiness of the present, and lay a strong foundation for a more enriching future, a well balanced life.
In our first session, my goal is to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges you're facing so we can collaboratively identify your goals and develop a personalized plan for moving forward.
As a therapist, I lead with compassion and create a safe, supportive space for my clients, while integrating evidence-based therapeutic interventions to help them achieve their goals and maximize outcomes
I’m passionate about supporting individuals as they navigate life transitions, embrace new seasons, and work through past experiences to find healing and clarity. I also empower clients to take ownership of their lives—emotionally, mentally, and relationally—so they can move forward with confidence and intention.
I have experience in helping clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, teaching them to reframe their thinking and adopt healthier perspectives. In practice, CBT is implemented through structured sessions that focus on problem-solving, goal setting, and skill development to manage anxiety, depression, and other issues.
I have a strong background in facilitating communication and resolving conflicts within family systems. In practice, family therapy sessions are used to improve relationships, understand dynamics, and address problems like communication breakdowns, substance abuse, or parenting issues.
My focus is on identifying client's strengths and resources, helping them build confidence, and resilience. In practice, this approach involves fostering a positive and empowering environment where clients are encouraged to leverage their personal strengths to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
I specialize in helping clients process and heal from trauma using a combination of CBT techniques and trauma-informed care. In practice, TF-CBT involves creating a space for clients to gradually confront traumatic memories, while teaching coping strategies to manage distressing emotions and triggers.
