We live in a broken and fallen world. At times life knocks us down and we find it difficult to cope or know what to do. As a counselor it is my job to meet you where you are and together address the concerns you are facing. I work from a Christian worldview and use this as a framework to assist you in evaluating your thoughts, situations, relationships and strengths. Regardless of your religion or faith, it would be my honor to work with you and get you on your desired path.
Anxious? Stressed? Having issues in your relationships? Are you struggling with loss and grief? All people experience difficulties in life. You don't have to face it alone. I appreciate the courage needed to take that first step toward change. If you are ready to take that step, contact me. We will work together to get you where you want to be. I help people with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, relationship and family issues, career challenges, and decision-making and problem-solving. I help people improve their confidence. By the way, it is ok to not be happy all the time. You do not have control over other people’s happiness, but you do have control over yours. You can get control over your life with healthy coping strategies and problem-solving skills. Together, we will find the best path for you and customize it with your goals. Improve your self-talk and your communication with other important people in your life. Set healthy boundaries to gain a sense of empowerment. You can have a life that you want. With years of experience as an LPCC-S in PA and OH, I am here to help you. Together, we can get you on the path to create the person and the life that you want. Because my practice is online through video, my office is wherever you are! I look forward to working with you!

I am a graduate of Waynesburg University and I have been working in the field of mental health, trauma, and substance abuse services for 20 years. Through self-exploration I found a home in the professional world of counseling. My client approach is grounded in a strong therapeutic alliance and is integrative by eclectic design and is centered on generation awareness. I work closely with clients to create an environment of trust, acceptance, and honesty. I believe wellness is a holistic and inclusive state of being. Through balance, stress reduction, interpersonal relationships, and self-efficacy the road to fulfillment is obtainable. Working through a generational lens, it creates a retrospective awareness, increased current insight into current relational patterns, and the ability to intentionally move forward with increased insight. Over the last 10 years I have worked with professional athletes and their families to create and maintain sustainable current objectives along, transitional adjustments and future planning.
I am a licensed professional counselor and have many years of experience working with teens, adults and elders struggling with inner conflicts, unresolved issues and emotional pain.
