To others it may seem like you've got it all together, but on the inside you're spinning out of control. Panic randomly punches you in the chest, taking your breath away, and you can't focus on anything else other than how to make it stop. You are consumed by trying to keep up with everyone else since they seem to have it all together, but you can barely function through the day. You feel like an awful mom because you are lashing out on your kids and hating the daily monotony instead of "embracing the joy of motherhood." You feel like you are failing your partner because somewhere along this journey you just lost yourself. You want to be a better mom to your kids. And remember why you fell in love with your partner. And stop the tornado of anxiety that knocks you out on the regular. You want to stop living by the expectations of others and rediscover who you truly are. It's time to win back some peace of mind and self-worth and attract the life you want. I have the DBT and mindfulness skills, which uses both mind and body exercises that will help you manage the crippling anxiety, love yourself better, be a more present and joyful mom, improve your relationships, and attract the life you want.

I hope that you give me a shot! I look forward to going on a journey with you.

Artmaking is a nonverbal, universal language that has the power to speak with imagery and can transform maladaptive thinking.

One does not require artistic experience to enjoy this practice and each art-based directive is empathically tailored to your needs. If art therapy is not for your--that's okay!

I went back to school later in life, and like to encourage others to do the same if possible. My first experience in this field came when I got a job at a county mental health/developmental services program as a receptionist.

I retired from the county program as a Casework Supervisor, I felt that my position was becoming more administrative, and I was missing the connections I had made with my clients. At that time I felt it was time to work on what my original goal was which was to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I did work for 5 years with children with behavioral issues in school and in their homes. My previous position was in a small practice in rural PA, where I learned the importance of being eclectic in my treatment approach because every clent and their situation is different , and they deserve to have a treatment plan specifically targeted to their situation

My journey with therapy personally inspired me to become a clinical social worker, as I experienced firsthand how transformative and essential the process can be. I understand the courage it takes to start something new and unfamiliar, and I recognize that each person’s path is unique. I’m here to meet you where you are, and together, we'll explore what the next step in your journey will be. I’m excited to get to know you! Outside of my work, I like to recharge by spending time with my loved ones and enjoying the simple things in life. In my free time, you'll find me building Lego with my wife, playing with my cats, spending time outside, or getting lost in a good series— new or old.

Are you struggling with life stressors, feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious? Are you tired of feeling stuck in constant worrying, self-criticism, or relationship difficulties?

If you want to work on your well-being, live more fully, and need to develop coping mechanisms and stress management techniques to resolve the issues that hinder you from living the life you envision, I can provide the support you need to accomplish these goals. As your therapist, I will assist in providing insight into your life experiences and its impact on you today and I would love to talk to you about how I can help. I work with young adults and adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, body image concerns, perfectionism, identity development, trauma, postpartum depression and anxiety, stress management, relationship problems, attachment difficulties, and childhood abuse.

I am a full-time school counselor, but work part-time as a therapist. Prior to becoming a school counselor, I worked in the mental health field for over 15 years in multiple roles. I enjoy helping adolescents and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns to identify strategies that allow them to manage and/or overcome these concerns. I tend to use an eclectic mix of person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy when working with clients. I also have been trained in mindfulness to assist my clients. I also understand the difficulties one might face related to the current societal climate as it relates to LGBTQ+ population and race. I believe it is important for clients to have a safe space to share the microaggressions, discrimination, and/or hate that one may face. I believe that I can be that safe space for all individuals. In my free-time, I am enjoy spending time with my family. During this time, we like to do things outdoors, such as playing pickleball, hiking, paddleboarding, or just relaxing.

Hello! I'm Clara. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with experience treating individuals diagnosed with PTSD, depression, and anxiety. I received my BA in Sociology from Wesleyan University and MSSW from the University of Texas at Austin. My approach is trauma-informed and systems-centered, and I am committed to working from an anti-oppressive framework. Therapy with me looks like co-creating a non-judgmental and affirming space where your thoughts, feelings, and experiences can be explored. I believe in the healing power of relationships and emphasize trust and honesty within the therapeutic relationship. I will invite you to share about your experience of treatment and will also share about how I am experiencing our dynamic. My goal is for our relationship to inspire new insights that help you build and maintain a healthy support system. I specialize in working with folks who have experienced trauma, loss, psychosis, addiction, and codependency in relationships. I identify and empathize with the unique barriers faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, and welcome clients from all gender and sexual identities.

With 20+ years of experience, I can offer you various tools to help you on your journey. I've raised six children and I can offer empathy and understanding of family life very effectively. I strongly believe that assisting someone make choices is the best way to feel better. I have worked with individuals, couples and parents/ families. In a non-judgmental environment, we can explore avenues that you as the client present. I am experienced in EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing) used most effectively with trauma. If you seek a counselor that is direct and real, look no further because I am that person.
