Life is not always black and white. I am here to help provide you with the tools to be the driving force behind creating your own narrative. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, going through a life change or just feeling stuck, no concern is too small to take the leap and begin your therapeutic journey.
Through my person-centered approach, I can utilize a combination of talk and art therapy to help engage individuals in a nontraditional way. I have helped children, adolescents, and adults by giving them the necessary tools to openly communicate their struggles in a safe and nonjudgmental environment.
It is important that every individual feels heard and seen in order to create a strong therapeutic relationship. I believe change and growth occur after a strong relational foundation is built. I strongly believe that together we can work to begin taking control of your own life back and strive toward creating the best version of yourself.

Remy
Our practice mascot - Remy!
Remy was found by a good samaritan at a bus stop in Texas. He was being taken care of in an overcrowded facility when Michelle Zapotoski came across his profile online. Michelle was able to adopt him and the rescue organization transported him all the way to PA. It was love at first treat!
In a therapy session, you can expect to be greeted by Remy when you get here. After that he typically will lay on his bed. He is also sensitive to crying and will take it upon himself to be a canine tissue for you if you would like! If not, Remy can be kept on a leash with Michelle for the session. He has been through a lot in his short life and we are so grateful to have him with us everyday!
