About Me

I help individuals navigate periods of change and uncertainty, finding clarity and resilience. My approach offers a calm, confidential space where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings. We can work together to understand underlying patterns and develop practical strategies for everyday life. Clients often find this process helpful for managing stress, anxiety, or relationship shifts. Our sessions aim to be a supportive partnership, helping you gain new perspectives and move forward.

Approach

Sessions tend to balance steady, practical pacing with room for curiosity, shifting between gentle reflection and focused skill-building. From my West Pittston office I meet in English with adolescents, parents and adults, using brief assessments, play-based moments and structured check-ins to keep progress concrete. Homework is small and purposeful—practice tools, short tracking, or parent conversations—to help patterns shift between meetings. People facing anxiety, mood challenges or life transitions often find clear steps and steady support helpful.
