I’m Glad You’re Here!

I am a licensed telehealth psychotherapist providing virtual therapy to adolescents and adults across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. With over five years of clinical experience, I specialize in neurodiversity-affirming therapy and LGBTQ+ affirming counseling in a safe, inclusive, and compassionate online space.

My areas of expertise include:

  • Anxiety and stress

  • Trauma and PTSD

  • Depression

  • Reproductive Mental Health (PMDD, pregnancy loss/infertility, and postpartum depression and anxiety)

  • Neurodivergence (including ADHD, autism, learning disorders, etc.)

Being raised in a family of mental health professionals helped me develop an appreciation for and curiosity about the complexity of the human mind. This lifelong passion informs my inquisitive and client-centered approach to psychotherapy.

I provide evidence-based, trauma-informed, and socially conscious therapy tailored to each client’s unique needs, challenges, and priorities. As a clinical social worker, I understand how systemic factors, cultural influences, family dynamics, and societal expectations shape our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we explore both internal experiences and external stressors to build your self-awareness and improve coping skills.

I believe therapy should be accessible, empowering, and collaborative and believe that therapy can help any client that is willing and ready to put in the work.

You Might Be Wondering, “What Sets You Apart From Other Therapists?”

I believe that therapy should help you live your real, everyday life, not just be a space to chit chat for an hour once a week. That’s why I focus on helping clients build practical coping skills they can actually use when stress, anxiety, trauma triggers, or other distressing emotions show up.

Let’s be honest: “fixing” every problem isn’t realistic. Life will always include stressors, relationship challenges, uncertainty, and uncomfortable feelings. In our work together, we focus on strengthening your ability to respond to those experiences in healthier, more sustainable ways.

If you’ve ever tried to push away an anxious thought, silence self-doubt, or “get rid of” a painful emotion — only to have it come back stronger — you’re not alone. It’s a very human experience. Instead of trying to eliminate distressing thoughts and feelings, I help clients change their relationship with them. This means learning how to notice thoughts and emotions without letting them control your choices.

When distressing thoughts, depression symptoms, or overwhelming emotions stop running the show, you’re freer to make decisions that align with your values and build a more fulfilling life.

My therapeutic style is collaborative, curious, and interactive. I see therapy as a team effort — a shared process where we both show up and put equal effort into the “group project” that is therapy.

I’ll ask thoughtful, open-ended questions to help you:

  • Connect past experiences to present patterns

  • Understand how your environment impacts your mental health

  • Recognize how anxiety, trauma, or depression may be shaping your daily life

  • Develop insight alongside concrete coping strategies

Therapy is a long game. Real growth takes time, reflection, patience, and practice. I support clients in building self-understanding at a pace that feels manageable and respectful — there’s no rushing the process. My role is to guide, support, and challenge you when helpful, while making sure you feel safe, heard, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process.

Let’s Explore Your Values, Not Just Your Goals

We live in a society that constantly pushes productivity, achievement, and goal-setting. While setting goals can absolutely be motivating, always chasing the next milestone can leave you feeling burned out, anxious, or disconnected from what really matters to you.

In psychotherapy, we’ll discover that a meaningful life isn’t built on goals alone — it’s guided by values.

Values-based therapy can help you slow down and ask important questions:

  • What actually matters to me?

  • What kind of person do I want to be?

  • Are my daily choices aligned with my core values?

In our work together, we’ll explore your personal values, clarify what feels authentic to you, and examine whether your values have shifted over time. We’ll also identify the barriers that may be holding you back — whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, people-pleasing, burnout, or self-doubt.

As part of a collaborative psychotherapy process, I help clients:

  • Clarify core values and long-term direction

  • Reduce anxiety around productivity and perfectionism

  • Break free from unhelpful patterns

  • Build coping skills that support intentional living

  • Create a realistic, sustainable path toward a fulfilling life

You don’t have to overhaul your entire life overnight. Through supportive, insight-oriented therapy, we can start a thoughtful conversation about what “meaningful” really looks like for you, and take steady, manageable steps forward.

If you’re searching for therapy that goes beyond symptom relief and helps you build a life aligned with your values, I’d love to help you begin that process.
