Therapists in Natick, MA
I bring a warm, supportive, and down-to-earth approach to therapy, with a dash of humor and creativity. My approach is to collaborate with you on developing skills and strategies to cope more effectively, as well as understand underlying patterns and past events that contribute to your current situation. We all struggle to see our strengths, at times, and therapy is a place to embrace those strengths and utilize them to balance out the unique challenges we face.

Current Openings: A few Morning/Early Afternoon times open at this time for either in person or Telehealth. Anxious? Experiencing a new upcoming change or life transition?

I’ve spent most of my career as a social worker in the field of child welfare, mostly working with children and families in a variety of ways. I’ve learned through these experiences, to struggle is human and to get stuck sometimes is universal. At times, when the emotional distress is such that it interferes with your functioning, goals, relationships and living a satisfying life, therapy can help.

Our journeys begin within ourselves. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I work to grow the light from within, place great emphasis on therapeutic relationships, and work to foster growth. Together, we can build an understanding of your life experiences, stressors and triumphs to bring you closer to your goals. As an equestrian a small portion of my practice is allocated towards fellow Equestrians and pet owners offering support in all aspects of the sport and pet ownership.

I offer my clients a non-judgemental space to be heard and sort through their feelings. I aid my clients in building self-compassion and tools for feeling better about themselves. Whether you struggle with your relationship with food, body, or sense of self, I believe it is possible to heal. My clients tend to hold themselves to high standards, spend much of their energy caring for others, and have a hard time putting themselves first. I believe therapy is an avenue for realigning your priorities and understanding how your personal history has informed how you feel today.

In working with clients, I consider the whole person, their mind, their body, their spirit. These three aspects aren’t separate but are in dynamic conversation: chronic physical symptoms are connected to our mental and emotional states, our feelings of depression relate to how we treat and relate to our bodies and sensorial lives. I enjoy supporting people facing life’s challenges, who are looking for a somatic dimension to their healing. I specialize in helping clients navigate difficult relationships, cope with grief and chronic illness, process the pandemic, and manifest greater depth, vibrancy, and purpose in their lives.
