Hello and welcome to Betterhelp! I know seeking additional support can be intimidating initially. I hope if you chose to work with me, I will be able to meet you where you are and provide reassurance and support as we go through this process. Allow me to introduce myself to you. I have been working within the field of social work for 13 years with populations ranging from infancy to late adulthood. Upon completion of my graduate program in 2015, I geared my focus to outpatient adult individual/group/family mental health counseling. I have and continue to work alongside those who are experiencing significant life changes, depression and anxiety. I have also supported survivors of trauma (domestic violence) and those who are experiencing grief and loss of any kind. It is my hope to provide you with a non-judgmental, safe place for you to explore challenges, strengths, and your goals. When we work together, we will explore the most suitable therapeutic approach based on your specific needs/desires for treatment. A few treatment modalities I utilize include solution-focused, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. On this platform, I am happy to interact within all methods offered on the platform, that you find comfort in-phone, text, and live chat My availability is limited and sessions will be scheduled with messaging.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania who has been working in human services for over 35 years. I work with issues of relationship difficulty and improvement needs , recovery from abusive relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, and parenting issues. I have recently begun to assist clients coping with grief and loss. I hold an undergraduate degree in mental health and a graduate degree in Pastoral Counseling. I am a published author in the areas of childhood trauma and couple relationship repair and enrichment. The name of my private practice is "Gentle Counseling", which is quite descriptive of my approach to counseling: to be patient and gentle, but firm and providing forward momentum by using solution-focused, cognitive behavioral self-help techniques. My goal is to help you solve your issue as quickly as possible, but also to never rush folks in the process of moving forward in resolving their issues.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I enjoy supporting clients who desire to heal from trauma and those who are struggling with transition concerns. As a person who grew up over seas, I also enjoy supporting clients who come from a variety of different counties and cultures. I graduated from Chatham University with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and I generally practice using a culturally humble and trauma informed lense, although I believe that an important component to treatment is the relationship I form with my clients. I have worked in community mental health, in university counseling, outpatient counseling, and at a sexual assault crisis center. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in your healing journey!
