Sessions for children 3 to 15 years old are only offered in person! 16+ offered in person or telehealth.
My work as a clinician is grounded in compassion and a deeply person-centered approach. I believe healing happens when people feel genuinely understood and accepted, so I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow at their own pace.
When working with children, I primarily use mindfulness-based play therapy. Play allows children to express emotions, explore relationships, and process challenges in a developmentally appropriate way. By integrating mindfulness, I help children build awareness, regulate emotions, and develop self-compassion—supporting emotional resilience and a stronger connection to themselves.
While most sessions focus on the child, I incorporate family therapy when it meaningfully supports progress. These sessions help strengthen communication, deepen understanding, and create more supportive home environments.
I also draw from contextual therapy, considering each child within the broader systems and relationships that shape their experiences. This perspective allows me to support families in building healthier, more balanced connections.
Across all modalities, compassion remains at the heart of my work. I aim to create a warm, respectful environment that honors each child’s story and supports meaningful, lasting growth.
At this time, therapy services for children under the age of 15 are offered in person only. Telehealth may be available for older clients when appropriate.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have worked as a therapist treating adults in individual and group therapy for 4 years. I specialize in anxiety, grief, and trauma. My approach includes therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Prolonged Exposure, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Narriative Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy. I'm always looking to expand my approach to best support my clients. My experience has been with community mental heath, two CIRC programs, and providing short term grief therapy at the Medical Examiner's office. Each of these have provided me with greater understanding of the system of care of Philadelphia and the reality of navigating it especially when resources can be nonexistent for housing or other basic needs. My specialities in grief and trauma are two sides of the same coin - intense loss can be traumatic. This philosophy is central to how I approach supporting clients in their journey. Both need to be address to help the healing really start.

I take a holistic perspective with my clients to address the health of body, mind, and spirit. I believe that a solid therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is a crucial part of the healing process, and that techniques and therapy approaches must “fit” the client in order to be effective—there is no “one size fits all” therapy. My goal, as a counselor and therapist, is to deeply understand my client, and when this happens we are able to identify areas of life that need to be changed, and ways of going about doing that. Therapy is a collaborative process between a trained therapist and a client who wants to change.
