Florescence: To flower, bloom, or grow.

At Florescence Counseling LLC, I work collaboratively with adults and teens 14+ in Pennsylvania (in person and virtual) and Michigan (virtual only) who are navigating OCD and/or complex trauma (trauma primarily stemming from childhood abuse and sexual assault). I use a holistic blend of cognitive and somatic-based therapies. This practice is grounded in the belief that healing is possible when care is personalized, compassionate, and honors the whole person. While you may carry or receive a diagnosis, I see you as more than a label. I value each person’s strengths, story, and individuality, and strive to foster empathy and connection beyond medical definitions. I’m here to walk alongside you on your path to recovery and self-discovery.

Therapy here is tailored to you, drawing from a mix of evidence-based approaches—including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Inference-Based CBT (ICBT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Whether you're looking for something more structured or more exploratory, we’ll find the right fit.

This is an LGBTQIA+, polyamory, Black, Indigenous, and people of color affirming space where all parts of you are welcome. I strive to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where individuals of all identities, faith backgrounds, neurotypes, values, and walks of life feel safe, seen, and supported.

Are We A Good Fit?

    • You’re ready to dive deeper into understanding and healing the root causes of your challenges.

    • You’re open to trying experiential approaches, including somatic (body-based) work and exploring emotions, memories, and patterns in new ways.

    • You’re looking for therapy that involves active, evidence-based modalities like EMDR, IFS, or ERP to create meaningful change.

    • You’re committed to doing the work both in and outside of sessions, whether that’s through self-reflection, practicing coping skills, or engaging in assigned exercises.

    • You value a safe, nonjudgmental, and affirming space to explore your experiences and identity.

    • You’re looking primarily for a space to share weekly updates without a specific focus.

    • You’re uncomfortable with modalities like EMDR, IFS, or ERP, which involve exploring emotions, memories, or physical sensations as part of the healing process.

    • You’re seeking crisis intervention or emergency support, as my practice cannot provide those services.

    • You’re looking for couples or family therapy, as I specialize in working with individuals.

    • You are seeking services for topics unrelated to trauma, addictions/substance use, and/or OCD.
