I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 5 years of experience helping children, adolescents, and young adults navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in supporting individuals through career transitions, relationship struggles, dual diagnoses, and personal growth. My own journey of healing and self-discovery has shaped how I guide others today. I believe the best teachers are often those who were once students of their own healing.

I earned my Master’s in Psychology from Holy Family University. I take a collaborative, solution-focused approach, working with clients to identify strengths, address barriers, and set goals that lead to meaningful, lasting progress.

I provide a judgment-free space where you can feel supported in exploring your goals. Together, we will work through challenges, past traumas, or obstacles that may hold you back. My goal is to help you get to the place where you see and feel your best self.

I am a licensed social worker (LSW) with 5 years of experience helping adults and caregivers manage stress, burnout, and major life transitions. With a background in healthcare and family systems, I understand the realities of balancing multiple roles while trying to care for yourself and others. My approach is practical, compassionate, and focused on helping you regain balance, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with your sense of purpose and peace.

I earned my master’s in social services from Bryn Mawr College. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness with a collaborative and supportive style that helps clients build trust and confidence. Together, we’ll identify what’s working, what’s not, and develop steps that support meaningful, lasting change.

You’ve carried a lot, and you don’t have to keep doing it alone. Therapy can be a space to slow down, make sense of things, and find strategies that actually work for your life. Small, consistent steps can create real change, and that’s where we’ll start. I look forward to walking alongside you on this path to healing and balance.
