In therapy, it's important for you to know that I'm here to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings freely. My approach is collaborative and compassionate—I’ll work with you to understand your experiences and help you move toward meaningful change. I value honesty, curiosity, and respect, and I’ll always meet you where you are emotionally and mentally. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we begin; we’ll navigate this process together at your pace.
I have been a clinical social worker for 6 years, and love this work. I specialize in grief, confidence issues, major life transitions, and trauma, and want to meet every individual with respect, warmth, and optimism. I have a master's degree in Sociology from Columbia University and a social work degree from the University of Pennsylvania. I love dogs, yoga, improv, and art!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my Masters of Social Services from The Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research at Bryn Mawr College (2019). I received my Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from Binghamton University, SUNY (2012). I am trained and have been certified as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (2021). I am certified in Yoga RYT-200(2014), and in Reiki 1 and 2 (2012).
I have been working in the field of counseling since 2007. Specialties include: Teenagers and young adults with anxiety, depression, borderline personalities, and LGBTQ+. I enjoy the teenager population because they are the most overlooked. I received my LPC license in 2020 after working in the field for 13 years. On my down time I enjoy coaching soccer and reffing along with many other sports with my many kids.
Who you are matters to me — and I mean that in the most specific way. Your story, your nervous system, your family history, your relationship with yourself. Not a diagnosis. Not a checklist. You.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 24 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and the quiet weight of just not feeling like yourself anymore. I offer telehealth therapy across Pennsylvania and Florida, which means you can access support from wherever you are — no commute, no waiting room.
I began working in criminal justice before pursuing social work — and that dual lens gives me a broad way of understanding people and the systems that shape them. I've worked alongside people in crisis, in grief, in deeply stuck places. I know what it looks like when someone is carrying trauma they've never named, and I know how to sit with you in that without flinching. My style is warm, grounded, and genuinely down to earth.
Finding the right therapist can feel like a leap of faith — especially when you've spent years wondering if anyone will truly get you. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, life transitions, or carrying weight you've never said out loud, you deserve a space where you don't have to explain yourself from the beginning. That matters here. You are not too much. You are not too complicated. And you don't have to perform wellness to be worthy of support.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Pittsburgh
Searching for couples therapists in Pittsburgh starts with knowing what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication breakdowns, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, parenting disagreements, and relationship stress. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for details in their profiles about Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credentials, the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy, or other couples counseling experience.
In a mid-sized city like Pittsburgh, you may find strong options across neighborhoods while still needing to compare schedules, session format, and fit for both partners. Some couples prefer meeting in person, while others use virtual appointments to make scheduling easier across work, caregiving, or commute needs. As you compare Pittsburgh couples counseling options, review each therapist’s bio for how they structure sessions, whether they offer a brief consultation, and how they describe working with both partners.
Marriage counseling in Pittsburgh can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready to choose someone who matches your needs and schedule.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
