Many face different trials and hardships in life and need someone to listen and help them explore their world of mental wellness. My goal as a counselor is to help you reach your therapeutic goals in alignment with what works best for you. I specialize in women's issues, as it relates to anxiety, stress, family concerns, and overall mental wellness. I work closely with those newly diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) needing to process through the diagnosis and start their journey towards mental wellness. I also offer virtual walk and talk sessions.

I am a masters-level clinician and I have experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I am a depth-oriented psychotherapist—I believe that the mind, body, and spirit are seeking wholeness rather than perfection. I work from a place of understanding that trauma is what happens inside of us in response to an external event and that healing from this pain—whether it manifests as anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, or relational issues—is a enriching process that you do not need to face alone. I am here to help you identify the clues in your life that are guiding you toward wholeness.

I am a mental health counselor licensed in the state of Massachusetts and have served in the mental health field since 2009. At Sanative Counseling and Wellness Center, I work primarily with adults who are facing anxiety, phase-of-life issues, relationship concerns (family or otherwise), difficulty with mood management, and struggles with self-esteem and direction. I believe we are all on a journey and that each of us can benefit from engaging in therapy, whether in seasons of despair or as ongoing self-care. Welcoming another person into one’s healing process takes courage and vulnerability.

Emotions are complex entities, fed by our experiences, beliefs, and relationships they can be both difficult to express and understand. For individuals who feel overwhelmed by their emotions compounded by the every-day stressors that life can bring, therapy provides a pathway to enhanced wellbeing. Tackling the misconceptions and stigmas that therapy is a privilege for a select few, my goal is to help put the power of self-awareness into the hands of all individuals through a mental health plan of action with a modern nuance that feels relevant to the realities of today.

May is more than just the gateway to summer; it's a month dedicated to shining a spotlight on one of the most critical yet often overlooked aspects of our well-being: mental health. Mental Health Awareness Month serves as a reminder that mental health is a fundamental part of overall health and well-being. Just as we prioritize physical health through exercise, nutrition, and regular check-ups, we must also prioritize mental health through self-care, stress management, and seeking professional help when needed.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
