Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Hello! I provide therapy services at our Shadyside clinic. I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience supporting adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, grief, relationship issues, work and school related issues and low self esteem. In our work together, we will use an eclectic range of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), self compassion, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Using a strengths based and person-centered approach, I believe you bring a wealth of experience and insight to inform our work together. I am passionate about working by your side to achieve your goals and restore balance to your life.
Together, we will create a warm, safe space to explore your emotions at a pace you are comfortable with. Using techniques such as motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, CBT and ACT, we will process life’s challenges as well as practice coping skills. We will also enhance ideas of self-compassion and mindfulness to experience yourself without judgment.
Do you feel you need a change but don’t know how to start? You are not alone. We often seek change but cannot heal in isolation. By partnering with me, we will use evidence-based approaches along with the strengths you bring to therapy to make the changes you desire. I look forward to beginning this courageous journey with you toward wellness.
