My ideal client is a young adult who is working on getting their life together. They are having a difficult time controlling their emotions and suffers with anxiety. Their goals are to get and keep a job, work on a career, and be more responsible. They are realizing that it is time to get it together. They are interested in learning coping skills and working on past traumatic events that they believe to be in the way of learning new ways. I will work with my clients to unfold what is brought into the room and set the pace that feels most supportive to them—together, creating a safe and supportive space as we address needs and goals.

I enjoy working with people who are struggling with substance use, whether they are just beginning to question their use and habits or they have experienced chronic relapse and feel hopeless. I believe part of that process is ensuring they are informed of options available and helping them discover their “why.” I have experience supporting people in identifying their strengths, finding coping skills, and creating measurable, attainable goals. I am skilled at navigating treatment systems/levels of care in Massachusetts. I have experience with medical detoxification protocols and can discuss options for medication-supported treatment.

At the heart of successful therapy lies a strong therapeutic relationship. This means creating a non-judgmental space built on connection and trust, where you feel comfortable sharing your vulnerabilities and exploring your inner world. I utilize a collaborative, strengths-based, and trauma informed psychodynamic approach. This means working together to gain awareness of how your past experiences might be shaping your present, while empowering you to access your strengths and support systems as you make positive changes in your life.

I currently have flexible evening openings! I know life can be really tough sometimes, can't it? Whether you're dealing with old wounds, relationship problems, money worries, or just trying to figure out what's next, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. You might be battling depression, anxiety, or feeling lost and alone. That's a lot to handle, but you don't have to do it all by yourself. I've been working with adults and families from all walks of life for over 20 years now, and I get it.

My ideal client would be new to therapy, though motivated to change. I am aware of the challenges that come with seeking therapy and want to be a support to those who are hesitant with the process. Ideally, I would like a client who is self-aware, receptive to feedback, and willing to hold themselves accountable.
