Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Pennsylvania with over 10 years of experience providing exceptional care in private practice, community mental health, and inpatient/outpatient settings. I offer a safe and compassionate environment to meet the needs of culturally diverse adults and adolescents with depression/anxiety, codependency, anger management, self-esteem, trauma, divorce, and other relationship issues. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Psychology from Pennsylvania State University and Master’s degrees in Social Work and Business Administration from Marywood University. My therapeutic orientation involves cognitive behavioral therapy while incorporating other effective approaches like strength-based, solution-focused brief (SFBT), person-centered, and attachment-based techniques, as well as motivational interviewing. I believe in evidence-based treatment modalities that foster sustainable change for my clients. I am passionate about working alongside motivated individuals and couples, helping them realize and achieve their goals. I meet clients wherever they are on their life journey, always respecting and validating their unique experiences.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The initial session often brings forth feelings of apprehension and challenge, especially for those new to therapy or those who have encountered unfavorable experiences previously. From the very first interaction, my priority is to establish a strong therapeutic connection with my clients. During the intake session, I’ll gather essential background information to shape our work and fine-tune my approach. It’s crucial to note that I will never pressure you to discuss anything you aren’t prepared to share, as this wouldn’t serve your best interests or our therapeutic progress.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
With over a decade of experience, I establish a secure and trusting atmosphere right from the initial session, fostering empathy and understanding. My extensive background ensures my clients feel comfortable discussing even their most sensitive concerns without fear of judgment or embarrassment.
