To me, therapy is a collaborative process. My goal as a therapist is to work with you to grow, gain new perspectives/coping skills, achieve goals, and increase personal strengths so that you can live your life to the fullest. As a therapist, I am warm, open, encouraging, and helpful, while using a sense of humor with a down to earth approach to counseling. I utilize a variety of techniques and skills from therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, and Motivational Interviewing. A holistic, person centered approach is what guides me.

I earned my master’s degree in counseling with a specialty in schools from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 2019. I currently practice as a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate. I have seven years of individual and group counseling experience, working in various treatment settings such as inpatient mental health/substance abuse, school, residential, and outpatient. I have a special interest in codependency and addiction/substance abuse but enjoy working with individuals who have been diagnosed with other mental illnesses such as major depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and more. I currently serve adolescents, young adults, and couples and families.

I am an advocate for suicide prevention awareness, strong support systems, and self-care. In my free time I enjoy traveling, trying out new recipes, playing with my dogs, and writing poetry. I hope that I can support you on this journey we call life!
