It’s time to take control of your life, change the path you are on, and reclaim your sense of control and calm in life.
My Background
I earned my undergraduate degree in Human Development and Family Studies from the esteemed Penn State University, where I developed a profound appreciation for the complexities of human behavior at every stage of life, from the joyful innocence of childhood to the rich wisdom found in the experiences of aging. This comprehensive education instilled in me a deep understanding of the varied challenges individuals face and fueled my desire to help others navigate their unique journeys. My own personal journey fueled my desire to help others. I can honestly say I have the most profound empathy for others.
Continuing this path, I pursued a master’s degree in social work at Youngstown State University in Ohio, studying social work and specializing in psychotherapy. This journey allowed me to explore the intimate dynamics of one-on-one therapy, where I learned the importance of creating safe, supportive environments that empower individuals like you to share their stories and confront their struggles.
During my required internships, I gained invaluable hands-on experience in counseling, working closely with clients who each brought their own unique experiences and emotions into the therapeutic space, just as you will. Over the years, I have had the honor of helping individuals with a wide range of diagnoses, approaching each situation with compassion and a genuine promise to understand their perspectives.
Throughout my career, over the decades, I have learned from, been mentored by, and consulted with some of the most respected psychotherapists in the field. Yet, my most profound learning has come from the clients I’ve had the privilege of serving. Each person’s story is proof of the resilience of the human spirit, and I am continually inspired by their courage to confront their challenges.
Let me be clear: there is a powerful path to healing, and I am fully equipped to lead you down that path.

My approach is firm and unwavering, grounded in a genuine commitment to your well-being. Together, we will develop effective strategies to confront and overcome the barriers that hold you back.

Each interaction reinforces my belief in the transformative power of connection, and I strive to provide the compassionate support that you need as you navigate your journey toward healing and growth. My philosophy is to listen, understand, teach skills for life, and be a committed supporter on your path to well-being.
