Social Worker

I am a clinician at our Fox Chapel clinic who provides therapy services!

My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore their inner world, even if it feels messy or uncertain. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, or relationship challenges and are seeking a safe non judgmental space to be seen heard and understood. What they may need is support in developing self awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier ways of coping. They’re looking for a therapist who can help them make sense of their experiences, build self compassion and move toward healing and personal growth. Their goals are often center around feeling more grounded, empowered and connected to themselves and to others.

With my Background in DBT and CBT as well as my specialization in trauma, anxiety, substance use, depression ands PTSD, I am able to offer a structured yet flexible approach to healing. I can help individuals identify and challenge unwanted thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Together I can help guide them in developing skills like emotional regulation mindfulness, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.

I know how overwhelming it can feel to navigate things like trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use and PTSD. With my background in DBT and CBT, I will work alongside you to help make sense of it all. Therapy is a journey not to be rushed but as your therapist I can offer real tools and support at your pace. We can work together to untangle negative thoughts that may be holding you back and also help you build skills for managing emotions, handle stress and improve relationships. Healing looks different for everyone and my approach is creating a safe, understanding space where you can feel seen, heard and supported. I invite you to reach out, I would be honored to walk with you through it.
