I work with preteens, teens, and young adults, holding a certification for the treatment of Child and Adolescent Anxiety as well as a certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies. I place high value on providing compassionate, holistic care for each person and family I work with. I will work collaboratively with you and/or your child to uncover strengths and problem solving abilities, broaden self-awareness, increase distress tolerance, and when appropriate to decrease the body's overactive response to anxiety and stress. Together we will identify pathways to reach your therapeutic goals.

I believe that life is a journey, and with every journey there are bumps in the road. Issues may come up in life that lead to feelings of confusion, anxiety, anger, or depression. It may help to find a person that will listen and can offer a helping hand on that road. I feel that with my years of experience and objective approach, I can be that person. There is a beacon of hope there, for minor bumps as well as life altering losses. I wish you well on your road and hope to hear from you.

I am a clinical psychologist in Warren, RI with an expertise in addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, existential challenges, and loss of meaning and purpose. I use my expertise in evidence-based therapies to help clients move beyond symptoms and lead more fulfilling lives. My approach to therapy explores how thoughts, feelings, and behavior shape who we are and what we do. Within this framework, we figure out what you value most in life to assist in guiding you to reach your goals.

Are you in emotional pain? Do you feel stuck and unsure of what your next steps should be? I believe that you have the resources to change, to self-actualize, and that you want your life to be meaningful. In order to activate these resources, I focus on values work to help you become more aware of what matters most to you. We will work together to shift your focus from your current suffering to the present moment. We will also address your avoidance and I will challenge you to try things differently, in ways that align with your values. I believe that you drive your healing process, and I serve as a catalyst.
