Individual psychotherapy ~ adolescents & adults
Mindfulness meditation classes
Specialty ~ working with artists and creatives & mindfulness meditation
I earned a Masters Degree in Education and Human Development - School Counseling from The George Washington University in Washington, DC, and completed a post-masters course of study at Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia, PA.
I am an integrative clinician, which means that I take multiple approaches to the therapy. We will work together to address your most pressing concerns first, using strategies to enable you to have some relief from your symptoms. As symptoms improve, emotions are uncovered and acknowledged. Above all, I am interested in developing the relationship, which provides a safe place to explore your concerns together in a respectful and collaborative way.
More specifically, my theoretical orientation includes strengths-based, family-systems, and psychodynamic theories. I will use holistic, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness approaches to guide the therapeutic process. While my orientation is my guide, the therapy is specifically tailored to the person who is sitting in front of me, and will look different for each individual or group.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Professional School Counselor, specializing in individual and group therapy for adolescents and young adults and their parents. I provide integrative therapy for various concerns, including anxiety, depression, school refusal, and transition to and from college. My special interests include issues of adolescence, working with artists and creatives, and mindfulness. I also offer specialized services to organizations and schools, and teach mindfulness classes.
