As a licensed therapist in Maryland with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions and emotional challenges.

My professional focus encompasses trauma recovery, mood disorders, military and veteran mental health, and life stage transitions including divorce, grief, and end-of-life counseling. As a former firefighter in the Baltimore area, I bring a deep expertise in addressing posttraumatic stress, first responder mental health, and traumatic brain injury. My approach centers on understanding each individual's unique journey, offering compassionate support for those experiencing stress, anxiety, and emotional complexity.

With a commitment to holistic healing, I work closely with clients to develop resilience, process challenging experiences, and rediscover personal strength. Whether supporting veterans, first responders, or individuals facing significant life changes, I provide a supportive, understanding environment where healing and growth can flourish.

My therapeutic practice is grounded in evidence-based approaches that honor each client's individual experience and potential for transformation.

I am a licensed therapist with a Master’s degree in Community Counseling from Slippery Rock University and an Educational Specialist (Ed.S.) degree from Liberty University. With over 14 years of experience in outpatient therapy and more than 5 years of supervising counseling interns and master’s-level clinicians, I bring both clinical expertise and a strong commitment to supporting fellow professionals in the field.

I have received specialized training in grief treatment using current evidence-based approaches across the lifespan, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My clinical experience spans a wide range of ages—from toddlers as young as 2 to individuals in their 80s—and I genuinely enjoy working with all age groups.

I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but I believe it’s a powerful and courageous first step toward healing. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered on your journey toward wellness.

I focus on creating a comfortable and safe environment to help you reach your goals. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, panic disorder, relationship issues, stress management and adjustment disorders with both individuals and couples.

Hello and welcome! I’m Beth, and I’m so glad you’re here and have taken the important first step toward self-care. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. You may be feeling like you've lost motivation or that your emotions have taken over, or perhaps you're worried about a child. Whatever challenges you're facing, EVERYONE deserves to lead a meaningful life. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals can confront their struggles, find empowerment, and regain a sense of security to start living their best lives.

As a highly sensitive person (HSP) with strong empathy, I understand the importance of compassion. I'm a down-to-earth person who has my own struggles, just like everyone else. I have two children: a son who recently got married and a daughter currently in college. Between my family, including my husband, we certainly know how to drive each other crazy! I love spending time outdoors in nature, as it helps me stay balanced. The tools and strategies I share with my clients are ones I’ve used in my own life, and I believe my experiences as a therapist, educator, mother, wife, daughter, and friend make me a relatable ally for those I work with.

Before becoming a counselor, I spent the first 20 years of my career as a school teacher in Philadelphia. During that time, I was privy to many difficult situations in my students' homes, including various forms of abuse and neglect. Unfortunately, the education system's main focus was on meeting academic standards, leaving little room to address the mental health challenges these children faced. I did my best to support them both academically and emotionally. Over time, I realized what my true calling was and I resigned from teaching to pursue a graduate degree in mental health counseling.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and genuine connection. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate life's challenges.

My professional background includes working with individuals who've experienced domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma,and emotional dysregulation. I tailor treatment to each person's unique needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches while recognizing that every client's journey is different.

I earned my degree in Social Work from Temple University and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am committed to ongoing professional development and providing care that is culturally responsive, affirming, and client-centered.

Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season, working through past experiences, or looking to build healthier coping strategies, I strive to help you identify your strengths, develop practical tools, and move toward the life you want to create.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I look forward to the opportunity to support you along the way.
