Introduction

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and the owner of Balance and Grow Counseling Center. I enjoy working with children, teens, adults, and couples who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach to counseling is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change, and I strive to create a comfortable, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard and understood. In addition to being a therapist, I hold a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and teach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I am also actively involved in research focused on supporting family cancer caregivers. As a certified Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I incorporate evidence-based techniques to help clients build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and work toward their goals. You may also meet Maisy, my certified therapy dog, who brings a little extra comfort and joy to the counseling experience! My goal is to help you feel supported, discover your strengths, and make positive changes at your own pace.
