LOTUS COUNSELING & CONSULTING LLC

Healing through trauma is an attainable dream – a journey that can begin today, right now.

My goals as a CEO, and licensed therapist, in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, are to work together to find solutions that work for you on an individual or group basis, helping you to discover the true happiness of your life, so everyday can be a celebration, and feel like a real ‘breath of fresh air.’ There may not be a magic wand or a quick solution when it comes to changing things from the past that have been difficult, but what we can do is work collaboratively to find comfort and purpose in the most difficult areas of your life, and the challenges you have to face. Through various strategies and long-standing approaches with proven results, we’ll be able to figure out what behaviors and/or thoughts that may be holding you back from living your best life, and finding meaning in everyday situations.

Whether you’re looking for support or actionable steps to aid you through a particularly difficult time, or you’re open to a real change in your life and where you’re going; together, we can work to achieve your individual dreams, and meet your individual goals.

There is no ‘perfect person’ for this type of therapy. Nor is there a ‘perfect client’ for therapy. Anyone dealing with any type of behavioral or emotional issue, from depression to couple’s counseling, to everything in between, is more than welcome to take that first step in changing your life and establishing a renewed outlook on life. You can rest assured that you will be in a comfortable, supportive, encouraging, and non judgmental environment; one where the focus will be on you alone – there is no ‘cookie cutter’ way of doing things here, and your individual or group needs to achieve growth are my top priority.

Welcome to the team Nova! Please see Nova’s bio below!
Showing up and acknowledging that you need support is a courageous act within itself. To be seen, heard, and witnessed can be a radical moment within the therapeutic space and, rest assured, is the entry point for our work together. In collaborative efforts we will acknowledge your experiences and, through consistency and trust, open the door to vulnerable pathways of self discovery to ensure you’re getting the support you need.

My goal is to walk this path with you in creating inner peace, understanding, and safety so that you are able to explore how relationship dynamics, childhood trauma, and life experiences have shaped you and created the person who stands today. My work involves compassion, kindness, and transformative ways we can walk together in developing emotional self-regulation, resiliency, and creating a grounded nervous system; ultimately shaping an existence outside of survival. As your advocate and accomplice through this experience, I understand I am a guide whose goal is to not “fix you” , but assist you in wading through difficult feelings, experiences, and life changes while building the tools you need.

I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ stress, PTSD , intersectional identity formation, burnout, and neurodivergence. I work with folks in navigating grief, familial and interpersonal conflict, attachment styles, chronic illness, and identity development. It is important to nurture who you are today through the development of effective coping skills and accountability. Within this space we will name what’s been lost, give power to who you want to become, and establish inner resources. We will reframe outdated narratives created through survival so that we foster care for the future you , compassion for your past self, and empathy for the present. Humanizing the person who has carried you through life and into this journey to heal will be at the center as we work together to achieve your goals.
