Coming to a therapist can be intimidating and it takes a lot of courage. It is my hope to provide you with a comfortable, safe, and accepting environment. Whether it’s just you, your family, or you and your partner, I want everyone to feel supported as we work on your treatment goals. As a systemic therapist, I help families and couples learn to communicate more effectively, resolve conflict, and deepen connection in their relationships. I also work with individuals to be more aware of thoughts, opinions, and beliefs that have developed over years of life experience, and how those impact their current view of the world around them.

I help young adults to seniors struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, grief, addiction, and other concerns. Seeking help can be intimidating, especially when you feel alone and misunderstood. You may avoid “burdening” others with the weight of your worries. I’m trained to support you in finding relief for symptoms holding you back from enjoying life. I create a supportive therapeutic environment by giving clients a safe space to share their experiences, thoughts, and emotions without judgment. I build rapport with clients by getting to know them and providing them with empathy and unconditional positive regard.

I have worked with a diverse clientele in a variety of settings. I've worked with children and teens with behavioral and school issues with histories of abuse and neglect in low-income communities in Boston, adults with trauma, mood, and substance-use disorders in a high end residential program, and inmates in the state prison. While every person I've worked with has been unique in their history, needs, and goals, I find that I can always find something to connect with. This connection can become life-changing when the client is motivated, willing to be uncomfortable and ultimately ready to move from discomfort to peace.

Many children struggle with the pressures of our modern world. Through therapy, a struggling child can be provided with the skills and tools to reach their greatest potential. I believe that each child has individual needs, therefore a personalized evaluation helps tailor a treatment plan that focuses on his or her strengths. My goal is always to assist the child in gaining the tools necessary to be successful.

When we invest in the process of self-inquiry we expand our capacity for living an authentic life. Having a supportive and nonjudgmental environment in which to do this can make all the difference. Holding space for my client's exploration is a privilege, therefore, the therapeutic relationship is based on respect, presence, and at times, the challenge of finding answers to difficult questions.

Note: Potential clients only, no soliciting. I have been a clinician in residential treatment for over 10 years. During that time, I treated adults of all ages with a myriad of issues. Since everyone's needs are different, I have learned to adapt my approach to the individual and their particular goals. Self-motivation to find healing is paramount to beginning the healing process. I primarily work with professionals and those willing to pursue treatment on their own. Additionally, I am a clinical supervisor and also work with Somatic Experiencing students to assist them with obtaining their certification. My practice is Telehealth.

I believe counseling is a client centered tool. It's a method of knowledge and empowerment to assist those in need of finding their light, voice and direction to reach their future goals. A path for clients to find understanding within their own competencies, strengths and abilities and way to view additional or alternative perspectives. As a counselor I must also be self-aware, genuine and have the ability to accept others as they are. I strive to foster a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental atmosphere where individuals from all walks of life can gain the ability to grow, learn and incorporate positive change.

Among the greatest gifts you can give yourself are awareness and acceptance. One of the biggest responsibilities our mind has is to make predictions based on our understanding of the world around us. These predictions can often lead us to repeat the same mistakes, or fail to take hold of things we desperately want. Are you someone who feels the need to make a change, but feels lost or overwhelmed with how? Do you feel out of place in your family, or with your friends? Are you working too hard at school, in your relationship, at work or with your children and feel like you don't have much to show for your efforts?
