    Behavioral Health Therapist
    LCSW
    Education:

    Bachelor's in Missions and Anthropology from Eastern University, St. Davids, PA. Masters in Social Work degree earned from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), Richmond, VA.

    Specialty:

    As a therapist in this community for the past decade, I am intrigued by the intersection of psychology and theology at this juncture. I am trained as a Spiritual Director and love accompanying people in their search for the Divine and in finding their way home to their truest self. I am heavily influenced by ego state therapy and the infusion of creativity and the arts in my therapeutic work. I have a deep trust that our symptoms are our teachers, commitment to keep curiosity close and that we are wired for wholeness.

    Languages:

    English and Spanish

    Personal Statement:

    Mental health support should be a right, as it impacts all aspects of our lives. Mental health is political, relational, economic, spiritual, racial, and communal. Since the pandemic, life has lead me down a hard, but rewarding journey of deconsructing many things that I had implicitly learned in life. I have 3 beautiful children who keep me tender and have been my greatest teachers in life. I am most alive in nature, reading about faith and justice, eating decadent food and having deep conversations with loved ones.
