About
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania who has been working in human services for over 35 years. I work with issues of relationship difficulty and improvement needs , recovery from abusive relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, and parenting issues. I have recently begun to assist clients coping with grief and loss. I hold an undergraduate degree in mental health and a graduate degree in Pastoral Counseling. I am a published author in the areas of childhood trauma and couple relationship repair and enrichment.
The name of my private practice is "Gentle Counseling", which is quite descriptive of my approach to counseling: to be patient and gentle, but firm and providing forward momentum by using solution-focused, cognitive behavioral self-help techniques. My goal is to help you solve your issue as quickly as possible, but also to never rush folks in the process of moving forward in resolving their issues.
