About Me

Hi, I’m a licensed therapist based in Pennsylvania. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges like burnout, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, and more. My approach primarily integrates EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients navigate what feels overwhelming, connect with parts of themselves they’ve avoided, and cultivate a safe, compassionate space for healing. Together, we’ll work to break free from stress-driven patterns and create a fulfilling life grounded in well-being, resilience, and meaningful, lasting change.

Education & Experience

I received my MSW from University of Pennsylvania. Early on in my career, I spent time working in community mental health and hospital settings. When I pivoted to private practice, I began cultivating skills in EMDR and IFS. I completed my basic training from EMDR Consulting and am close to completing my certification. I am in progress working towards my IFS level one training, and have received years of mentorship around utilizing IFS effectively. I also have taken advanced trainings in the integration of IFS and EMDR. I also am a yoga teacher and a mindfulness-based stress reduction facilitator.
