About

OFFERING TELEHEALTH and IN-PERSON COUNSELING
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Pennsylvania with a worldview grounded in Biblical principles. My counseling approach is client-centered and treatment varies depending on the specific needs of the client. I work collaboratively with clients in establishing and accomplishing measurable goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, including Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) are a predominant focus as well as Solution-Focused strategies. Additionally, researched based interventions and techniques are utilized to effectively and appropriately address client needs.

I provide a safe and confidential environment and telehealth platform for individuals to explore current issues they are experiencing. Feelings of grief, anxiety and depression can easily be overwhelming and begin to disrupt daily life. For those clients experiencing grief, I walk with them through the stages and help them to fully engage in the process so that you can experience peaceful healing. Providing clients with ethical, competent care with Christian values in a secure environment is my priority in establishing our counseling relationship together.

My professional background includes over 15 years of experience collectively in the business and education sectors and has provided me with a solid life experience base to connect with others on many levels. I am also a registered New Life Ministries Counselor.

Why I Became a Professional Christian Therapist

It is my desire to fulfill my calling by working with individuals and couples who strive to live a Christian life based on Biblical principles and need encouragement to overcome the ways of the world that saturate the society in which we live. In my life’s journey the Holy Spirit has been my guide through times of trials, tribulation and suffering. Counseling others allows me to extend the love of Christ in providing a nonjudgmental haven for people to work through their challenges.

MA, NCC, LPC
I am passionate about helping individuals gain a better understanding of themselves and offer a Biblical worldview. Your counseling experience will be tailored to best meet your needs. Typically, I use a variety of modalities such as: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-centered Therapy and Adlerian.

Over the years I have been heavily involved in Christian Camping Ministry and I understand the pressures that an individual and a family unit can experience when serving in ministry. I have also worked as an educator and been a school-based counselor, and I have a passion to help teachers navigate the stresses that the school year can bring.

I understand it takes a lot of courage to make the decision to come to counseling, and it is very important to me to build a strong therapeutic alliance with you to help you accomplish your goals and make the progress you desire.
