I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the states of PA, NJ, & SC and a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in RI. I live in Philadelphia, and have for the past 4 years. I spend most of my days talking with clients, scrolling instagram (my feed is a mix of stand-up, reality, and therapy content), and hanging out with my beloved friends or face-timing my family. I've been a therapist since 2022, after receiving my master's degree from Boston University's Mental Health Counseling & Behavioral Medicine program. After two years working under supervision, I received my professional license in 2024. It has been the joy of my life to do this work; I genuinely love meeting with my clients. 

The world is overwhelming and chaotic; for a moment of time- therapy sessions allow us to connect, rest, and process our experiences. 

Willow Way Counseling was born out of a simple truth: people deserve therapy that is effective, dynamic, and genuinely personalized. I saw the growing need for a space where clients could feel truly seen, supported, and understood — a place where the work feels less like “treatment” and more like unloading your troubles, sharing your dreams, and adapting to the never-ending chaos of life.

The roots of Willow Way stretch back to the strong family figures in my own life, people who embodied perseverance, vitality, and compassion through unforeseeable and complex transitions. Their influences shaped the values of this practice: you deserve a space to process your story, tend to your healing, and challenge yourself — all while being witnessed and supported by someone firmly in your corner (me!).

My tone in sessions (and in life) is warm, conversational, and just the right amount of witty. I primarily work with adolescents, emerging adults, and anyone in the 'adulthood' cohort, who are navigating the beautifully messy process of growing into themselves. Some are recovering from eating disorders. Some are juggling the stress of new schools, new cities, new jobs, or new relationships. Others come in with big questions about identity, purpose, and who they want to become next. All are welcomed and valued!

While I bring strong clinical foundations, therapy with me isn’t a lecture — it’s collaborative! You are the expert on YOU, so I will follow your lead, supporting and exploring your process along the way. Most of your life exists outside of our sessions, I want to create a space where we can work together to enhance your day-to-day.

Some people love the idea of therapy, but life circumstances do not allow for sessions at this time. If this sounds like you, please reach out to discuss a postponed start, where I will reach out to you at your desired start time and reserve up to three appointment slots to get you started.
