LPC | Licensed Professional Counselor
I am a genuine and interactive therapist passionate about supporting individuals navigating life's inevitable transitions and losses. Loss is a universal human experience, yet deeply personal in its impact. Whether it's the loss of a loved one, a career shift, a relationship ending, a decline in independence, these experiences can leave us feeling stuck and unsettled. My approach to therapy is designed to empower you to not only weather these storms but also emerge with a deeper sense of self-awareness, acceptance, and resilience.
I have years of experience, continuing education, and specialized certifications to work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, grief, trauma, coping with chronic medical illness, and managing life transitions. My approach to therapy is integrative and collaborative. I believe the most effective path is built upon a strong therapeutic alliance, where we work together to understand your unique experiences and goals. I may utilize techniques from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help you manage intense emotions and develop healthier ways of coping. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be a valuable tool for building awareness of and challenging negative thought patterns. We can also explore solution-focused therapy to identify your existing strengths, build upon them, and develop concrete steps towards achieving your goals. I meet you where you are, without judgment, and offer a compassionate and supportive space to explore your feelings.
Whether you are facing a life transition, struggling with loss, or simply seeking a space for self-discovery, I invite you to reach out and explore how I can support you on your journey. Together, we can work towards fostering acceptance for what is, embracing the present moment with greater resilience, and ultimately find meaning and purpose amidst the changes in life.
I accept Aetna, Cigna, United/Optum, Quest, and Highmark Insurances.
I am available in-person at the Fishtown and Society Hill locations, and offer teletherapy as well.
