Biography

My primary treatment philosophy is that people are doing the best they can with what they know. With supportive listening, care, and education, people can grow and reach their goals. I draw on my knowledge of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness to deliver personalized care for each client. I particularly enjoy working with families, adolescents and young adults, and with the neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ populations.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of PA, NJ, and CT. I have worked in the mental health field for 18 years in a variety of settings including homes, communities, schools, and offices. During that time, I have worked as a case manager, family therapist, and outpatient therapist. My clients have included people from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds. I am also experienced in working with trauma, and am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy.

My experience spans nearly two decades working with many who struggle to find their way through different life challenges. I will collaborate with you to identify and attain goals. Getting to know you is the first step, and that is achieved through a variety of approaches grounded in family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, and understanding any types of trauma that may have been experienced.
