I am a pre-licensed professional counselor who is passionate about helping individuals achieve mental wellness

I am a pre-licensed Professional Counselor working towards licensure in PA. I have experience working with (counseling) later adolescence and early adulthood individuals in a college setting. My areas of experience include, but are not limited to, working with individuals who have struggled with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma.
I have been trained in several different theoretical orientations, but I prefer to tailor to my client’s individual needs. I tend to take a holistic approach to therapy. Not only do I consider my client’s mental health concerns, but also their physical, spiritual, and social well-being.
I strive to create an environment that is welcoming—an environment where individuals feel that they can be their true selves. As a client, you should expect to have a collaborative relationship where you can find support, encouragement, and experience individual growth. As humans, we are all similar and different in many ways, and I believe anyone can achieve mental wellness if given the right tools and provided a space where they feel heard.
Something that is extremely important to me is being culturally competent and respecting the diversity of my clients. This may include but is not limited to ethnicity, religion, gender identity, and sexual orientation. With my experience in the field, I understand the importance of taking into consideration the diversity of my clients and how it shapes their lives.
