My Approach to Helping

My doctorate in sexuality gives me the background and ability to specialize in the areas of general sexuality, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sexual dysfunction and trauma. As a licensed social worker, I am also prepared to do more "general therapy". I also use EMDR to treat different forms of trauma, including life disturbances that may seem small to the client but have impacted self-esteem, relationships, etc..

My practice is client centered and strengths based. I use a variety of methdologies depending on the needs of each individual client. My practice is culturally sensitive, and I work with people from a variety of backgrounds.

More Info About My Practice

My private practice is located in the Center City and Mt. Airy. I primarily work with adolescents and adults, specializing in women, girls, and the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender populations. My areas of focus include sexuality, trauma and disabilities.

I am happy to meet with you for a free consultation. It is important that you find a therapist that you feel comfortable with. My 30 minute consultations are designed to help you determine weather I am a good fit for you and to answer questions you might have about the therapeutic process.
