About
I hold a Master of Arts Degree from Edinboro University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have been in practicing for the past seven years in a variety of settings including a hospital inpatient-based drug and alcohol program, private practice settings, and as a school-based counselor covering six schools working with students in grades k-12. Additional practice experience includes working with individuals, groups, families, couples, children, teens, young adults, adults, and older adults. I am an experienced therapist licensed in Pennsylvania since 2018. I have a passion for working with people from different backgrounds, cultures, and ethnicity. I enjoy learning from each of my clients and utilize the knowledge gained to grow both personally and professionally while improving my skills as a therapist. I recognize it takes courage to engage in the process of therapy. I appreciate your motivation and will work respectfully with you to create a positive, collaborative, therapeutic relationship. The focus of my practice is helping people to overcome and understand issues which impact their quality of life. I feel it is essential to understand the person as a whole by having a clear picture including mind, body, and spirt, in order to start the healing process in order to grow. I provide a safe judgement-free space where my clients can feel comfortable discussing the issues they wish to resolve or find difficult to deal with. I have found the process of developing a therapeutic relationship to be profound and fundamentally important to facilitating growth and change. I am ready to assist you in these stages of change and helping you to reach your goals. I am look forward to joining you on your journey! Congratulations on deciding to take the first step in the exploration of and investment in yourself!
