About me
I’m a therapist based in the great city of Philadelphia. I have a Master’s of Social Work Degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and hold an LCSW in the state of Pennsylvania. I am licensed to see clients in the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.
​
I see clients for individual therapy, couples therapy, and offer assessments for trans and gender non conforming folks seeking gender affirming medical treatment.
​
I specialize in the treatment of mood, relationship and substance use difficulties, and have extensive experience working with a wide range of people trying to heal from trauma and abuse. I draw from trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, psychodynamic, feminist and anti-racist treatment frameworks. I'm also HAES (Health At Every Size) aligned, meaning I practice from a fat friendly lens. I am Neuro Divergent affirming, and love working with ND folks. I utilize a Harm Reduction lens, meaning that abstinence from substances isn't the only option for increasing your quality of life if you're using substances.
​
My clinical experiences include working in jail settings, inpatient drug treatment, intensive outpatient treatment and supportive housing. I also have experience facilitating psychoeducational and therapy groups.
​
I have training in Harm Reduction frameworks, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Psychodynamic frameworks, Narrative Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Group Therapy modalities.
