Introduction

When people are experiencing stress, unhappiness, and conflict they often feel like there is no hope. I help individuals work on identifying and processing, triggers, coping with their pain, and moving forward to reach their life goals. I help children, college students, adults, and families focus on their strengths to be able to live their best lives. Individuals may need a variety of ways to achieve this. Treatment approaches I focus on include Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused CBT, EMDR, Trauma Art Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Behavioral Therapy. I am gaining education in Play Therapy and hope to be able to provide that service to individuals soon. My education background includes a MEd. in Counseling from Penn State University, an MA in Sociology from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and a BA in Sociology from Berea College. I have been working in the mental health field in various capacities since 2000. I look forward to helping you in overcoming your challenges and moving forward in your life. Please reach out to me for more information or to schedule an appointment today.
