I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my Bachelors degree in Social Work from Shippensburg University in 2002 and my Masters in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh in 2003.

I have been trained in numerous treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Prolonged Exposure (PE). While I use a blended treatment approach with my clients, I have specialized training and experience in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and use that as my primary treatment modality.

I currently am offering virtual sessions only. Clients must be located in the state of Pennsylvania at the time of session to remain compliant with licensing regulations.

Virtual therapy is providing mental health services over the internet. I find that virtual sessions can be just as effective, if not more effective at times, than in-person sessions because of the flexibility to provide services where the problem is occurring. Anxiety and OCD, for example, live in the home so it’s a great place to tackle problems head on.

I utilize a secure portal called Simple Practice to schedule appointments, communicate with my clients, process payments, and meet virtually. You are able to access Simple Practice on either a phone, tablet or computer.

I am a self-pay practice. I accept payment through Simple Practice via an on-file credit card.

Superbills (a receipt you can give to your insurance company for potential reimbursement) are generated and emailed out monthly for those looking to utilize out-of-network benefits.

Please check with your insurance company for your out-of-network benefits.

Card payments are processed via Stripe through the Simple Practice client portal. A credit card will be retained on file and will be charged after each session.

I am happy to answer them! Please feel free to send me an email.
