MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Accepting Virtual & In-person appointments in West Chester.
I am a compassionate and creative therapist who works with all ages, meeting each client exactly where they are in their journey. My approach centers on creating a safe and supportive space where clients can feel free to express themselves openly and without judgment, no matter what they’re going through.
Rooted in person-centered therapy, my work is guided by empathy, curiosity, and respect for each client’s unique emotional world. I incorporate strategies to help clients recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns, while building emotional awareness, self-trust, and resilience at a pace that feels right for them.
For clients who are interested, I recognize that healing can take many forms and have the ability to integrate art, play, and music into my sessions to offer creative and nonverbal pathways for expression.
I appreciate working with clients who want support with:
- Anxiety and obsessive-compulsive tendencies
- Emotion regulation
- Self-esteem
- Navigating life adjustments and changes
- Healthy expression and authenticity
- Increasing relational satisfaction
- Building healthy coping skills and techniques
Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy photography, expressive arts, hiking in nature, and grounding practices like yoga, pilates, and meditation. I also have a soft spot for cats and appreciate the comfort and calm they can bring, and have two cats myself.
Please reach out to schedule an appointment if you feel we could be a good fit. I look forward to supporting my clients in navigating challenges with authenticity, connection, and care.
I accept Aetna & Cigna Insurances.
