As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on understanding each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I'm committed to creating a compassionate, affirming space where clients can explore their challenges and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth.
My therapeutic work focuses on helping individuals work through social anxiety, isolation, life purpose questions, and interpersonal dynamics. I have extensive experience supporting adults in addressing issues related to self-esteem, guilt, shame, and personal transformation. I bring a holistic, empathetic perspective to our work together, honoring each client's individual experiences and strengths.
I believe in collaborative healing, where we work together to uncover your inner resilience and develop practical tools for emotional well-being. My goal is to support you in creating positive change, building self-understanding, and moving toward a more fulfilling life.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very polite and will genuinely listen to what you have to say, and show genuine concern for you and your well being from the start ! I haven’t had many visits yet but i’m definitely more invested in therapy in general because of her! Super understanding and non- judgmental !
