I believe everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey. It’s important to me that we communicate openly and you feel respected in our relationship. I’ll be there to listen to you, challenge you, and support you along the way.

Recovery doesn't happen all at once. Whether you're struggling with substance use, anxiety, trauma, or the emotional weight of life's challenges, taking the first step can feel overwhelming. You may be tired of feeling stuck, carrying guilt, or wondering if lasting change is really possible. You don't have to navigate that journey alone. For more than 20 years, I've partnered with individuals experiencing substance use and addiction and anxiety, helping them rebuild confidence, strengthen resilience, and create healthier, more fulfilling lives. I believe meaningful healing begins with feeling understood, supported, and empowered, and my goal is to provide a compassionate space where lasting recovery and personal growth can take root.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Temple University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in managing anxiety, navigating depression, and healing from past trauma.

My approach blends evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a spiritually grounded perspective. While therapy is rooted in clinical skill, I also create space for deeper connection—often integrating spiritual awareness into the work for those who are open to it. I believe healing is not just mental, but also deeply internal and, at times, spiritual.

I work with children, teens, and young adults who are dealing with anxiety, grief, big life changes, and relationship stress. I also support parents, families, and couples who want to feel more connected and communicate in healthier, more honest ways.

I have a wealth of over 15 years' experience providing individual, family, couple therapy to those who have depression, anxiety, endured trauma, relationship concerns, or life stressors with work, personal, or family. My clients age from 15 years old to 62. They are diverse in reference to gender, culture, race, spiritualty, and relational beliefs.

As a dual holistic practitioner, I acknowledge that prioritizing and actualizing mental health wellness are essential keys to balance and stability in life. I applaud you for leaping and getting support for your healing or rediscovery journey. You have achieved the first major milestone!

I have 12 years’ experience counseling all backgrounds and ages including men, women, mothers, professionals, veterans, and teens who have dealt with anxiety, depression, addiction, family and career issues, etc. My clients often tell me that I have a unique way of explaining ideas and perspectives to them that makes it easy for them to understand and apply.

Great to meet you!
