Couples therapists in Erie, PA

I’m deeply committed to providing nonjudgmental, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed care. I understand that mental health isn’t one-size-fits-all, and I take the time to listen, learn, and adapt to what works best for you.

I don’t expect perfection — I expect real people, with real experiences, showing up as they are. I bring not only clinical expertise but also lived understanding of how layered and complex healing can be. You’ll never have to shrink or code-switch in my care — your story, identity, and truth are all welcome here.

Do you find yourself overthinking everything — replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or feeling stuck in your own head?

You might look like you have it together, but inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure what to do next. I work with adults and couples who feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, relationship stress, and constant “what ifs.”

A lot of my clients struggle with communication, setting boundaries, or trusting themselves to make the “right” decision. Together, we slow things down and make things feel more manageable. We focus on clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and helping you feel more confident in your choices.

Therapy with me feels like a real conversation — not clinical or intimidating. I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll figure it out step by step.
