Hello! I'm a certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with experience helping people in hospitals and clinics. I specialize in dealing with issues like substance abuse, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD, using the newest guidelines and proven treatments. I care deeply about mental health, believing it's just as important as physical health. My goal is to break down the stigma around mental illness and encourage others to put their mental well-being first for a happier life.

It is my belief that everyone can and should benefit from therapy; whether suffering from severe mental illness or simply looking for a road map. Truly knowing oneself is an integral part of the lifelong journey toward self actualization. Unfortunately, stigma discourages many from taking advantage of our profession.

I am humbled to work in a profession where I am often the first person to bear witness to stories of strength, transition, pain, loss and celebration from diverse populations; individuals, couples, LGBTQ populations and families in need of tools to better understand, navigate, balance and enjoy their lives. It is both a science and an art to be able to counsel effectively. I specialize in Sex Therapy, Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, Clinical Hypnosis, Eating Disorders, Expressive Arts Therapies and Cognitive Behavioral modalities for over 35 years and I am continuously learning new skills to better serve my client base.

You are constantly telling yourself, “Be strong!" You try to ignore your racing thoughts. You seem to start each day more mentally exhausted than the day before, wishing and hoping for something to change. Maybe you lost a loved one or your child, were told you have a chronic illness/disease, realized that your relationship is in shambles, are haunted by childhood experiences, or the pressures of your life/ job have begun to take their toll. You have thought of therapy but rationalize with yourself that “it isn’t so bad” and that you can keep trying to “fix yourself” only to find yourself circling in a self-blaming pattern.

Are you struggling with interpersonal relationships, with repetitive arguments in conflicts with loved ones? Has your marriage become stale or is your family in transition with divorce and remarriage? Suffering alone leads to further problems and often leads to symptoms of anxiety and stress. As a seasoned licensed marriage and family therapist, my services are geared towards clients willing to make positive changes in their faulty communication and subsequent unhealthy behavior patterns. My focus is on enhancing clients strengths and setting specific goals to reduce mental health distress and assist clients in the self evaluation/modification process, which is the essence of psychotherapy.

I received a dual master's in Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy at Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Clinical Psychophysiology at the College of Integrative Medicine and Health Sciences at Saybrook University. My practice integrates cognitive-behavioral approaches with art therapy, neuroscience, and mindfulness. Treatment plans are tailored to meet the client's individual needs.

I have learned that we all have an enormous capacity to change - when we can access our own inner power. It is through the safety and health of the relationship between client and therapist, that you can learn to have new experiences that are satisfying and find your own unique formula for healing.
