I focus on parents and those trying to become parents. Parenting is demanding and nonstop. Once you think you have it figured out, there is always something new from infants to adult children. It also brings on extra strain in areas such as finances, relationships, careers, and self care. In addition, sometimes family planning does not go as expected. I help parents deal with infertility, miscarriage, loss, etc. Mothers also can have difficult pregnancies, birth trauma, and postpartum depression and anxiety. I'm here to listen, help you identify ways to cope, and help you work through realistic solutions.

I have my Masters in Clinical Psychology and started my private practice in 2020, but have been working in the field for over 17 years in a variety of different roles and settings, including schools, hospitals, and outpatient counseling centers. I have worked with clients of all ages, demographics, and presenting issues/concerns and utilize an integrated approach based on multiple modalities of treatment.

Life does not come with an instruction manual. It can be messy, painful, overwhelming, difficult, and downright exhausting. But I believe that change is always possible. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationships, motivation, adapting to change, or just the stress of day to day living then therapy can help. Therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, therefore it is important to find a therapist that meets your specific needs. I provide a welcoming and safe environment to help clients define goals, identify strengths, and make positive changes.

My ideal client is a person dedicated to making positive changes in her/his life. These adjustments may be as simple as a new hair style or as complex as brain surgery. I invite the client to tell me about himself, including hobbies and interests. What is he most proud of? What might he like to improve? What was the nicest thing anyone ever said about him? What really hurt? I encourage the client to comment on the paintings in the room and what they might have in common. They all have something to do with going somewhere. I tell them that my favorite professor at Boston College, William Meissner. S. J. said of therapy, "It's all

I work with women wanting healthy relationships and a renewed sense of vitality and life satisfaction. If you struggle with chronic anxiety, depressiveness, or unfulfilling relationships, I provide a warm and safe space to share your experience and work through issues. Two of the greatest gifts therapy can offer is resolving unfinished business and experiencing a sense of 'okayness' even in the midst of life's challenges. I will invite you to explore where you feel stuck or wounded; and will assist you in releasing distressing emotion, so that you can move forward to create the life and relationships you want for yourself.

Do you feel like nothing you say or do with your teenager is right? Are you worried about your child's safety, their behavior, and/or their future? Trying to effectively parent a struggling teenager can be incredibly challenging. Whether your teen is engaging in unsafe behaviors, won't go to school, or is constantly dysregulated, the pressure this puts on parents and siblings can be overwhelming. I help families/parents/individuals identify what their therapeutic goals are, what is getting in the way of meeting those goals, and what needs to happen to create a safer, healthier family that can move forward together.

I work with clients who are struggling with life stressors that have become too difficult to navigate on their own, such as: unsatisfying personal or family relationships; anxiety; marital conflict, infidelity, separation and divorce; parenting stress; health related issues; caregiver stress; grief and loss; and job dissatisfaction or career transitions.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults around issues of grief and loss (death and non-death: divorce, relationship changes, life transitions, adoption, chronic illness) and anxiety. Through my many years working with bereaved children and their caregivers, I have learned that we all grieve our losses in our own way and in our own time. In an attempt to create a refuge from the cultural pressure “to move on,” I strive to offer a welcoming, nurturing, and safe space for you to grieve your loss, to find hope and connection, and to discover ways to heal and to grow.
