She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience and focuses on clear tools that can be practiced between sessions.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to show how thoughts shape feelings and behaviors.
How Naomi works
That helps people break cycles of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication in stressful moments. Naomi also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and find practical steps forward.
For people coping with trauma, she uses trauma-focused methods and calming techniques to reduce distress without forcing a reliving of events. Sessions often include practice exercises, problem-solving, and straightforward strategies for daily life. Her background includes long experience in inpatient psychiatric settings and earlier work related to parenting and family concerns.
That experience informs a direct, down-to-earth approach to issues like grief, addiction, sleep problems, ADHD, mood disorders, and caregiver stress. Naomi is based in Pennsylvania and conducts work in English. She accepts international clients and offers a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
The first steps are a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session online.

Online support options
Approaches that translate to online care
Naomi commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions to change mood and behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or attention concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on emotion regulation and interpersonal skills, offering concrete tools to manage strong feelings and improve communication when stress is high.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques to set realistic short-term goals and identify immediate steps forward. Finding the best approach is collaborative - the therapist will ask about needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor techniques that fit each person's situation. This process makes it easier to adapt methods over time as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which help fit care into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or a shorter check-in during a break. Live chat and text messaging provide ongoing support, quick problem-solving, and the option to review written suggestions later. These choices make it easier to use practical tools consistently and keep therapy working for your daily life.
