Do you need Saturday hours? I am available most Saturday mornings to help you fit therapy into your busy life! I have 21 years of counseling experience with multiple populations.
All parts are welcome! Do you ever feel like you have different parts of yourself that are struggling with each other and preventing you from moving ahead? Deep down inside of us we have inherent wisdom it is only a matter of tapping into that wisdom as a resource for healing. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania and have been practicing since various clinical settings. My background includes training in addiction, EMDR, psychodrama, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I also integrate narrative therapy, art-based interventions, and Internal Family Systems in order to creatively integrate those parts of self that need attention and healing. True healing can accelerate in a relationship that is non-judgmental, accepting and warm and I seek to offer these aspects in my approach. You don’t have to carry the heavy burdens of your life alone- we can walk this road together!

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania, and I work with children, teens, and adults who are dealing with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and family struggles.

“Trauma-focused therapy is at the heart of my practice, and I offer a warm, supportive space for healing and growth.”
I’ve been a therapist for more than 38 years, and I bring a steady, compassionate approach to helping adults through a wide range of challenges. Over the past 16 years, I worked in two Veterans Outpatient Clinics, where I had the privilege of supporting both male and female veterans. My areas of focus include trauma, PTSD, childhood sexual abuse, domestic abuse, relationship concerns, depression, and anxiety. My approach is to meet the client where they are and assist them in improving their lives.
I am a professional counselor who recently began working part-time with Headway and am currently accepting new clients.
I have been working in the mental health field since 2015 across a variety of settings, including residential treatment, inpatient rehabilitation and detox, and school-based services. I currently work full time with Allegheny Health Network as a Behavioral Health Clinician, where I provide counseling to college students through the Chill Project.
As a clinician, I take a person-centered approach and draw from a range of evidence-based modalities tailored to each client’s needs, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and others. I also have a strong interest and experience in working with substance use disorders. In addition, I am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC).
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most vulnerable moments. My work has focused on caregiver burnout, aging and end-of-life issues, veteran support, adjustment to new or serious medical diagnoses, and family conflict.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Pittsburgh
Searching for therapists in Pittsburgh starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want to address. Pittsburgh therapists may support concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for therapists who list specialties, populations, or therapy approaches that fit your needs. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what sessions may be like.
Pittsburgh has therapy options across neighborhoods and nearby communities, with both in-person and virtual appointments available. An office near your home, workplace, or transit route may matter if you prefer in-person care. Virtual sessions may fit better if your schedule changes or you want more choice across Pennsylvania. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, focus areas, and approach to care.
Therapy in Pittsburgh can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready. You can filter by location, appointment type, specialty, and insurance plan, making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is accepting new patients.
