Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in West Chester, PA

Welcome! As a therapist, my mission is to cultivate a place for you to share your story and rediscover your strengths. I integrate my education, training, and lived experience to create an informed, compassionate practice built on mutual trust and safety. Contact me and we can begin to write your next chapters, together.

I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and my path into this work comes from a genuine desire to help people feel understood and supported during some of their hardest moments. My experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings has shown me how complex mental health can be, so I approach each client with empathy, patience, and respect for their individual story. I specialize in treating anxiety, ADHD, depression, and mood disorders.

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.

I am a licensed therapist whose passion, knowledge, and expertise has been from working with women from many different backgrounds and walks of life. I received my masters in counseling from Pennsylvania Western University and have spent the last two years working with nurses and nursing students. Prior to that, I have spent many years working with youth and young adult women in psychiatric and hospital settings providing specialized care and support with grief/loss, relationship and familial issues, life changes, and general life exploration.

I focus mostly on behavior change. That might be a change from how you think about yourself, relationships, work, or something else. I can help you explore that. My role is to support you in believing that change is possible.

I also work in an open-ended environment. There is no contract or set number of sessions. Therapy should be flexible, and everyone's frequency is different. Most people notice growth within 10 sessions.

I'm a social worker with over a decade of fieldwork with various populations in numerous settings. My breadth of experience affords me special insight into and a deep passion for infertility, perinatal and postpartum struggles, chronic illness, and military life. Working together is mutually beneficial: I get to put years of schooling and experience into practice, and you get to work towards improved overall wellness.
