I am a Licensed Social Worker, working toward my LCSW. I’m a graduate of Kutztown University; I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s in social work with a concentration in families & communities. I have worked with individuals, families, and groups in various settings— schools, residential treatment, and traditional outpatient. I have experience helping people of all ages with reducing anxiety, increasing self-efficacy, and overcoming barriers. My practice is trauma-informed, and I pull strategies and concepts from a variety of modalities to best fit the needs of each person. My therapeutic approach is holistic, and my perspective is that healing happens when we feel nurtured, supported, and empowered in a safe and trusting environment.
I think it’s important to know a little bit about your therapist! In my personal life, I enjoy hiking, indoor rock climbing, spending time with my friends and family, cooking, and snuggling with my cat. I particularly enjoy reading and talking about books and poetry. I’ve learned that life is a wild and precious journey, and I’m honored to be a part of helping others through it. I’m grateful to be here at Restore, and I can’t wait to meet you!
