Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19150 United States

About

I enjoy treating adults, teens, couples (married or otherwise), and families who are suffering from a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, illness, recent loss, drug and substance abuse and/or a history of trauma (emotional, physical and mental).I specialize in working with couples (married or otherwise). The relational dynamic and negative reinforcement cycles intimate partners find themselves trapped in are the things I have a strong knack for noticing and interrupting to allow couples to find new ways to improve their relationship quality.

With close to 20 years of experience working for the Philadelphia Courts system and a background in communications prior to obtaining my master's degree, I excel at finding communicable common ground between family members. My personal and professional philosophy is "Life is simple, people complicate it". Let's make things simple again.

I pride myself in bringing my humanity to therapy. As someone who has been a therapy client before, I know what it feels like to feel like you're talking to a robot about your deepest and darkest pains and memories. I know the value of human connection and how paramount it is for healing. Whatever road you are on, let's walk it together hand in hand.
