I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care, shaped by both my professional training and personal life experiences.
As a nurse practitioner, I've practiced in family medicine, wound care, plastic surgery, urgent care, and perioperative and hospital medicine. This broad clinical foundation allows me to approach care holistically, recognizing the connection between physical and mental health. In my psychiatric practice, I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, personality disorders, and schizophrenia. I care for clients across the lifespan who may be navigating life transitions, emotional distress, chronic mental health conditions, or seeking greater stability and quality of life.
I take a collaborative, patient-centered approach, developing individualized treatment plans based on shared goals we establish together. My aim is to create a supportive environment where you feel empowered, understood, and actively involved in your healing—helping you build resilience, strengthen coping strategies, and achieve meaningful, lasting change.
I bring both professional knowledge and real-life understanding to the care I provide. My life experiences allow me to meet you where you are, offering a nonjudgmental approach focused on supporting your individual needs. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and balance.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Child therapy, also known as counseling for kids, helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst kids include behavioral issues, trauma, bullying, depression, and anxiety. All ages of children can attend and benefit from child therapy at Thriveworks .
Child therapy works by using multiple techniques tailored to fit the child’s needs based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve play therapy for younger kids or cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks child therapists in , PA have the expertise and experience to help kids at their level.
Child therapy is a type of therapy meant for clients within a specific age group, while play therapy is an approach to therapy that helps children with self-expression and stress relief, among others. Play therapy is a technique that is often used in child therapy to help children express what’s running through their minds when they do not have the words to express their thoughts and emotions. It can get children to express what’s wrong, what might be causing unwanted behaviors, or what they might need in a way that is accessible to them so that therapists can then work to treat the issue.
It’s not always obvious when a child should see a therapist for their behavior, though in the midst of challenges like divorce, loss, bullying, and other mental health conditions, it’s often a good idea to seek it out. Common behaviors that can indicate a need for child therapy include separation anxiety, bedwetting (at inappropriate ages), and agitation/excessive irritability — especially if it reaches a point of physical violence.
Cognitive behavioral therapy at Thriveworks in , PA is one of the best types of therapy for children. However, it can be administered in child therapy sessions in a variety of ways that are more accessible to young minds, such as play therapy.
Child therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of child therapy depends on your child’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, child therapy sessions will last for several months.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.
