My passion for this profession began many years ago because of my own trials and the gifts of wisdom, courage, faith, gratitude and patience that I received from those who helped me as a young woman.

I knew that giving back to others would be the aim of my life's work. For over 16 years I've enjoyed my work with individuals, couples, families, and groups, helping people successfully change their lives, feel good about themselves, let go of painful pasts and the blocks and barriers that prevent us from reaching our hopes and dreams.

I graduated Summa Cum Laude, as a University Scholar, from The University of Pittsburgh in 1993. In 1995, I completed a Master's of Social Work with high honors. Afterwards I taught Cultural Diversity at The University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Social Work as an adjunct professor while working as a therapist.

Eventually my full-time work became therapy in a private setting, and continues as such today. In my practice, I implement various modalities according to your needs. Often, a psychodynamic approach is combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy..

I believe it is important to explore the past in order to understand why we think, feel and behave in the ways we do today.

It's important to discover ways to cope with challenging situations, and change our patterns of thinking and behavior in order to ultimately feel good about ourselves and our relationships, and to meet the goals of our life's work and dreams. What is of utmost importance to me is that you feel comfortable and safe in our therapeutic relationship. I offer compassion, direction, information and respect to help on your journey.
