COUNSELING
I provide general clinical counseling, on issues such as depression, anxiety, couple counseling, divorce counseling, parenting, spiritual guidance, and stress management. I specialize in helping people who have been victims of emotional and relational abuse.
My counseling license limits me to only counsel residents of the state of Pennsylvania, anyone NOT a Pennsylvania resident and is interested in speaking with me will have to refer to the "Coaching" tab for more information.
All clinical counseling takes place via TELEHEALTH Sessions (Video Chat or Phone), or, IF CLINICALLY NECESSARY, in-person at 1216 Pleasant Valley Blvd, Suite #208, Altoona, PA.
You may choose to have a brief, FREE consultation to see if we are a good fit for each other. If I cannot help you, I will try my best to refer you to someone who can.
