Harvard Pilgrim Therapists in Chestnut Hill, MA
I received my Masters in Social Work from Boston College in 1995. I specialize in helping clients who present with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and environmental stressors. I work with clients who are LGBTQ+, straight, or cisgender. I strive to provide a safe environment in which clients can explore problematic areas which inhibit personal growth, work toward creating either change or acceptance regarding feelings, thoughts, and behaviors, and to identify patterns that are no longer useful. I derive deep fulfillment as a therapist, and consider it a privilege to be a trusted participant on one's journey.

Talking about heavy emotions is sometimes hard to do and maybe equally as difficult to open up to a new therapist. I am a licensed clinical social worker earning my MSW from Bridgewater State University. My style is warm and compassionate. I offer the client to set the pace which allows time to share their experiences in a safe, comfortable space. I believe in using a client-centered and strengths based approach to help inform the work we do together. I will work alongside you to develop a realistic treatment plan to help you reach your desired goals and outcomes.

Fall 2024 - Accepting New Clients! Whether managing short-term or long-term stress, I value making a space for clients to take a moment to stop, step back from what they're doing and take a look from the outside. In a comfortable space with a supportive therapeutic relationship, clients can best understand themselves and disentangle challenges of daily life. I believe in helping clients identify what defines them as an individual, and how to best fulfill the things in life that are important to them. I also value awareness of identities relating to culture, ethnicity, gender and sex, and how they affect clients' values and goals.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker with extensive experience in treating adults. At some point, we all have to deal with the effects of life's stressors, be they at the loss of a relationship or job; a parent's or spouse's illness; the onset of a medical condition; conflict within a relationship; or other sudden and unwelcome changes in life's routine. Everyone has strengths that are silenced by such stressors and I specialize in helping clients to deal with those stressors by bringing back those strengths. Through conversation, support, and humor, I help clients learn to feel strong again in the face of adversity.

Therefore, my approach focuses on creating an authentic and connected space where we can delve into your experiences, thoughts, and emotions, empowering you to chart your unique path forward.
