Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in York, PA

I am an LCSW, psychotherapist, with 12+ yrs experience in the Mental Health field. I have worked in many different Mental Health Settings such as: Residential, IBHS, Drug/Alcohol, and Community Based. Specializations include: CCTP, EMDR, and Anxiety, Depression.

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I bring nearly two decades of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My clinical expertise centers on helping clients navigate challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and interpersonal dynamics. I specialize in addressing men's mental health, workplace stress, social anxiety, and life transition concerns.

I bring a warm, grounded and approachable presence to therapy. Clients often tell me I'm easy to talk to and that I create a space where they feel understood rather than judged. As someone who balances many roles in my own life, I understand what it feels like to carry stress, navigate transitions, and show up for others while trying to take care of yourself. That lived perspective helps me connect with clients who are overwhelmed, burnt out, or searching for clarity and stability.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Speech and Hearing Disorders and my master's degree in Professional Counseling. I currently serve as a Clinical Supervisor and Program Director in community mental health, where I oversee clinicians, strengthen treatment programs, and support whole-person care across school, home and community settings. This background gives me a solid understanding of both the emotional and practical challenges people face.

I work with adults, teens, caregivers, parents, college students, and helping professionals. Some of the treatment areas I frequently support include:

• Anxiety and stress
• Depression
• Trauma-related experiences
• Grief and loss
• Burnout and compassion fatigue
• Life transitions
• Self-Esteem
• Relationship and family patterns
