About me ... I grew up in a small town in Southern New Jersey. I was fortunate enough to have extensive extended family all within 20 minutes of each other. I grew up playing competitive soccer. I enjoy camping, art, watching documentaries, and reading. I love to learn! My junior year of high school, I went on my first mission trip to the Dominican Republic - this trip sparked my passion for helping others. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) from Widener University, and I hold a Clinical License in Social Work (LISW-CP).
My Philosophy... My professional background has been focused on helping people reach their individual goals by identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns, reconciling relationships, and aiding clients in developing healthy problem-solving skills and effective communication techniques. I believe it is vital to the therapeutic process to honor the individual as unique and to tailor my therapeutic approach accordingly. I take a holistic lens approach that considers a person’s biological, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects. I use this holistic assessment to identify the client’s specific needs, strengths, and goals. This allows me to better support, guide, and inspire my clients in their journey toward their own goals and healing.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
