Humans are resilient. We break bones and recover. We are not defined by our fractures, so why be defined by our adversities? By the same token, trauma may feel like a fracture to one’s personality, but trauma does not define an individual. On the contrary, but rather, an individual is defined by the characteristics that silently evolve in the aftermath. My approach is relational, psychodynamic-oriented, and skills-based to teach how to manage emotions, tolerate distress, and improve relationships. I aim to tailor treatment based on needs and readiness in order to foster resilience, enhanced insight, and achieve personal growth.
I specialize in work with children, adolescents, and adults through a trauma-informed lens that is both integrative and client-centered to help clients develop the tools needed to become the architects of their lives and futures. I am licensed in Massachusetts as an LMHC and also hold the ATR-BC credential, readily implementing art therapy at client request.
If you are interested in blending therapeutic elements of the creative process & traditional talk therapy for unlocking self-discovery, cultivating empowerment, or learning to use artistic modalities as a tool for inner balance while navigating life’s challenges - I create a safe space for embracing healing through a variety of expressive modalities.
