If there’s one thing I believe about therapy, it’s that it should feel like a conversation, not a one-sided lecture where I just nod while you wonder if you’re oversharing. (Spoiler: You’re not.)

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Pennsylvania, and I've been working in mental health and substance use treatment since 2012. Along the way, I’ve done a bit of everything: individual and group therapy, evaluations, and assessments in inpatient, outpatient, and correctional settings.

In therapy, I take a practical, supportive, and collaborative approach. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), which is just a way of saying we’ll work together to untangle unhelpful thought patterns, shift the ones that aren’t serving you, and find a path forward that actually feels right for you. I won’t tell you what to do, but I will help you figure out what works without the pressure to “fix” everything all at once.


Beyond  the Work

I'm someone who values honesty over polish and connection over small talk. I’m curious by nature and tend to ask the kinds of questions that make people pause (in a good way). Not because I’m trying to analyze anyone, but because I care about what’s underneath. That’s always been true of me, even outside the therapy room.

I love wandering through thrift shops and secondhand markets. Not to hunt, but to stumble on something that feels like it has a story. I collect things without much rhyme or reason—just pieces that feel like they belong. And when I cook, it’s usually for someone else. It’s my favorite way to show up for the people I care about. I cook the same way I approach connection: intuitively, imperfectly, and with a little curiosity every time.

But more than anything, I value those quiet, unspoken moments of connection. Whether with a friend, my family, or someone I’m working with, when, just for a second, we both remember that no one really has it all figured out. And honestly? That’s kind of the point.

If this feels like the kind of support you're looking for, I’d love to connect.
