My clients describe me as:
A real person -- accepting and genuine. I've been told I am kind yet direct. I incorporate humor and creativity into sessions.
Something to know about my approach is:
I am a supportive and validating listener and I work to provide concrete strategies to help you move forward. I'm trauma-informed and consider the impact of class, race, gender identity, sexuality, and other societal factors in our work together.
Together, we will:
Work collaboratively. Help you better understand yourself, identify & change unhelpful thought loops, learn & practice ways to build self esteem and improve your relationships with others, process & begin to heal from past trauma.
I specialize in working with people who:
Struggle with maintaining healthy relationships, have experienced trauma, are unique and don't fit in a typical box (bi-cultural or biracial, non-traditional relationships, artists & musicians, LGBTQIA).
I became a therapist because:
Making mental health a priority is seriously life changing. I love connecting with others and am honored to be able to hear your unique story.
Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:
I offer video sessions due to the pandemic. I can reach people across the state of PA and you can have therapy in the comfort your own space.
More about me and my practice:
I have experience working with other therapists and therapists in training identifying and processing how their own family history and relationships impact their work. I'm involved in creative pursuits and well-versed in issues unique to creatives.
