About Me

Hi, my name is Lia. I have been providing care to individuals, couples and families for over four years. I received my BA in Psychology from Caldwell University and went on to earn my Masters of Family Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University. I was drawn to becoming a therapist due to my care and curiosity towards others and their lived experiences, as well as my desire to be of help and support.

Outside of the therapy space, I enjoy being active and artistic. You can often find me spending time with my partner, going on hikes with my dog, practicing music and playing ice hockey.

  • I take on a collaborative, systemic approach with my clients, working to identify and process the unique experiences and challenges they have been through, while understanding their initial responses to these challenges and where they developed. I tend to explore how this has impacted their current patterns, relationships, and behaviors. I use a variety of modalities, and tailor the therapy space in ways that will feel most supportive and beneficial to clients. I do my best to not only understand individuals in their current stage of life, but also to get a full picture of what they have experienced throughout time and what has led them to the place they are in today. My goal is that each client leaves feeling heard, affirmed and supported, while also feeling as though they have gained insight and tools that will help guide them moving forward.
