Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in West Chester, PA

Life can be so hard. It shouldn't be, but it is. Our culture produces symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, etc. We weren't meant to live this way and to confront the constant stream of stressors we face on a daily basis. 40+ hour work weeks, struggling to make ends meet, supporting others while we struggle to support ourselves, unexpected life events, financial instability, always reaching and striving for the next benchmark, promotion, or grade. The list goes on and on and it often feels overwhelming and impossible. I believe that those systems are the problem, not you, and I want to help you navigate it better.

A warm and intentional place to lay down what you’ve been carrying, feel truly seen, and gently reconnect with the parts of yourself that are ready to heal and grow.

I have a long background in working with people who have interacted with the criminal justice system. This has given me first hand experience in witnessing how trauma, anger, depression, and anxiety negatively impacts not just the individual but also their families and partners. It has also given me the opportunity to educate people on themselves and seeing the gratifying process of change that happens as a result.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced training in evidence-based assessment and treatment for a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks and panic disorder/agoraphobia, anger and irritability, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders, OCD, and alcohol and other substance use. I also work with clients navigating concerns such as relationship or family conflict, grief, and general life stressors.

I earned my doctoral degree in clinical psychology and have experience providing both individual, couples, and group treatment across inpatient and outpatient clinical settings. I’ve worked closely with psychiatrists and other medical professionals, including nurse practitioners and social workers, as part of interdisciplinary treatment teams. Much of my clinical work has focused on adults presenting with complex and co-occurring concerns.

Welcome to therapy!

You have made the right decision by being here. I'm a seasoned Clinical Therapist with 15 years of experience. I have worked with Veterans, men, women and children in the criminal justice system, rehabilitation facilities, nursing homes and schools. I have a BA in Behavioral Science and a MA in Social Work, I'm board certified in Addiction and Mental Health.

I have been practicing therapy for several years (licensed for almost 2) and the more I do it the more I enjoy it. I enjoy hearing people's stories and watching them change and progress in many different ways. I like to ask questions, but am not afraid to challenge something or make a joke at times. I have worked in the drug and alcohol field for several years and in that field I encountered many different mental health conditions.

I believe that humans should ideally be unfolding and growing throughout their lifetime. This means embracing change, especially when life gets difficult and we feel stuck, dissatisfied, or overwhelmed. Change is a journey with ups and downs. Personally, I believe we all struggle with challenges at different times in our life and it's the courageous who seek help.
