Welcome to New Path Counseling! We are accepting new clients. We have in-office and Telehealth appointment availabilities. You can schedule your appointment by clicking on our website link. We have clinicians who are licensed in the state of MA, CT, and RI. Life is full of challenges and unpredictable, we can’t always mitigate or control these; the key is to be aware of our maladaptive behaviors and build strength by enhancing our awareness and creating a new path for ourselves, family, and/or couple. We understand that not everyone can heal and cope the same way.

Do you need help, for yourself and/or loved ones? I work with children, adolescence and adults in an individual, family, or group setting. I strive to develop a safe therapeutic relationship with my clients. My goal is to develop a treatment plan that is individualized and specific to the areas of your distress. We will focus on strengths as well as implementing positive coping skills and exploration of stressors that hinder success and happiness in one's life. My practice is fully functioning and has transitioned into our “new normal”. Together I will provide the safest place possible through the many measures we have useful to us.

Welcome! I work with adults struggling with stress, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, transitions, and illness. My intention is for us to work together to help you move forward with your life and achieve your goals. I bring a warm, compassionate, and calming presence to my work. I am interactive, supportive, engaged, and committed to our work together. I respect that you know what’s best for you. My job is to help you clear away anything that prevents you from living the life that you want.

I work with individuals and couples navigating a variety of concerns. I deeply believe in the transformative power of being truly seen and heard, to better understand how you move through your world and in relationship with loved ones.  My approach is both warm and direct; my goal is to help people hold space for the discomfort of growth, the pain of vulnerability, and the hopefulness of change.

We all experience trauma and distress at some point in our lives. These past experiences, no matter how small or big they may seem, can take a toll on our mental health and act as a barrier to living the life we want to live. As an EMDR therapist, my practice is operated on the theory that our past experiences cause present distress and prevent us from reaching our goals.
