For more than 25 years, I’ve dedicated my career to helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and hope. I began my professional journey as a liaison for children with disabilities, working to strengthen communication between families and schools so that every child could receive the support they deserved.
As my work evolved, I became increasingly drawn to the broader systems that shape our emotional wellbeing — the family relationships, life experiences, and personal stories that influence how we connect and cope. During my time at Highmark Caring Place, a center for grieving children, adolescents, and their families, I discovered a deep passion for grief work and the healing power of empathy and shared understanding.
I hold a master’s degree in Education from the University of Pittsburgh, as well as a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
In my counseling practice, I offer a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their emotions, strengthen their relationships, and move toward healing and growth. My approach is grounded in authenticity, respect, and collaboration — meeting each client where they are and walking alongside them as they work toward greater balance and wellbeing.
