Clinical Social Worker in Philadelphia, PA

About My Clients

I have worked as a therapist in diverse settings, including outpatient programs, homeless shelters, substance abuse programs, and LGBTQIA clinics. I love supporting people on gender journeys, discernment, grief, and body trust journeys. I help individuals facing depression, anxiety, mood disorders, autism, stress, self-esteem issues, grief, eating disorders, and trauma. As a gender-affirming therapist, I counsel trans and queer individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

My Background and Approach

You are not a diagnosis, a project, or a problem to be solved. My goal is to co-create a safe, supportive space where you can explore, discover, and heal. Your journey is unique, and you deserve a therapist who feels like the right fit. Feel free to reach out with any questions about my background, training, or experience. Let’s ensure you feel comfortable and confident in our work together. Reach out today to start a partnership focused on your growth and well-being.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Using proven therapeutic approaches like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused techniques, we will work together to uncover the underlying causes of your symptoms. Through this process, we will find ways to foster healthier thoughts, behaviors, and coping mechanisms, empowering you to face life's challenges with newfound strength. If you're ready to take the courageous step towards a more balanced and fulfilling life, I encourage you to reach out. You don't have to carry the weight of these challenges on your own. Let's embark on this journey together, where I will walk alongside you, providing the care and guidance you deserve. Please don't hesitate to contact me to schedule a consultation. Remember, there is hope, and positive change is within your reach. I'm here to help you find it.
