About My Clients
I received my Master’s degree in Social Work from West Chester University and have worked with a wide variety of individuals to assist them in achieving both short and long term goals. I have experience working with various populations including those who have experienced current or past grief and loss related to chronic illness such as cancer, teen girls and young women coping with the struggles of adolescence and young adulthood, survivors of domestic violence and addiction.
My Background and Approach
Together from the social work perspective, we can focus on supporting and working towards effective change holistically rather than just on your symptoms or diagnosis. This includes your successes, barriers, family history, support systems, community, and anything else that makes you, uniquely you. One of my favorite aspects of therapy is creating a trusting and impactful connection with my clients, much like this powerful quote from a Harvard psychology professor, Jerome Kagan, “being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.”
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
When I am not providing therapy, I spend my time reading, listening to true crime podcasts, finding new coffee shops and restaurants to embrace my hope of becoming a recognized Yelp reviewer, and hanging out with pups at a local animal shelter.
