Accepting new clients for February! I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been in the field for over 15 years. I have worked in medical settings, youth empowerment programs, social justice nonprofits, and most recently at Massachusetts General Hospital in the Department of Psychiatry. I most often work with clients around anxiety, relationship concerns, family dynamics, job stress, body image, major medical events/illness (including end of life), and substance use concerns. I've completed 200HR yoga teacher training and use mindfulness in my therapy practice if it's of interest to my client.

In the collaborative process of therapy, our work together will involve cultivating a positive therapeutic relationship, developing an awareness of unconscious drives, discovering areas of resistance, fostering creativity, and helping you reach insights leading to personal transformation.
Helping clients navigate the spaces from where they have been, where they are, and where they are going is essential to my work as a licensed mental health counselor. I have taken this approach in my work with clients across a wide range of ages and backgrounds and a variety of settings, including veteran residential facilities and partial hospitalization group therapy programs. Drawing from my own experiences as a veteran, my goal is to help others transition from one stage of life to the next while making meaning of the whole of their lives, and have made that a primary focus to the work I do today.

Ready to make some changes? Sometimes it's really hard for us to ask for help-especially as a strong female. Therapy is a great way to affect personal change, learn more about yourself, & grow through any challenges you might be facing.I help women through the transition of pregnancy, birth, & postpartum mood issues. Perimenopause/menopause is also a great time to come to therapy. I also help women who want to change their relationship with food and their bodies. And, clients see me for managing anxiety & depression. For trauma work, I like to use Brainspotting/EFT. I also offer online therapy in MA, CA, CT, FL,& AZ.

The most common reason people choose to come into my practice is because of relationship issues.
I see every patient as an individual and collaboratively we assess what kind of work would be best. I use an integrated therapeutic approach drawing on insight oriented, cognitive-behavioral and mind/body modalities. My style is direct. The goal is for people to manage relationships better and meet personal goals. Simply said, therapy is used to help people cope better with problems in their lives. Whether it's changing their behavior or the way they think about things, therapy brings a better sense of well being and a reduction in stress and distress.

Whether you're facing life transitions, relationship challenges, or emotional distress, know that support is available.
My ideal clients are those who may be seeking healing from trauma, navigating anxiety and depression, and improving relationships. They're committed to self-awareness, open to exploring emotions, and willing to engage in introspection. They value authenticity, trust the therapeutic process, and actively participate in their own growth. They appreciate a clinician who is strengths based, trauma informed, and encouraging to help guide them through their unique and individual healing process. I am also a lifelong equestrian and strive to use my education and experience to help other riders overcome competition and performance anxiety.

Some things cannot be done alone. Managing grief, living with debilitating anxiety, tolerating resentment that will not relent - all are life challenges that require the presence of a patient listener who can bring words to pain where previously there were none. Our therapeutic relationship will create a safe space to share troubling feelings, thoughts, and behaviors that have been experienced as shameful, embarrassing, or isolating. I offer individuals an opportunity to examine past choices, current patterns of behavior, and impending decisions in a curious manner that promotes self-reflection and increases self-awareness.

I hope to promote an open and collaborative relationship that emphasizes mental flexibility, empowerment, skills, and understanding to create change that will continue beyond therapy.
I am well positioned to provide exceptional services to young adults given my experience working in college mental health (ex. MIT, Tufts, Boston College), and also have great skill in working with adults of all ages. I have a clinical specialization in LGBTQ psychology and background in Women’s and Gender issues. I enjoy addressing cultural issues and identity exploration and development (ex. gender and sexuality, racial and ethnic, emerging adulthood, etc.). I am well-equipped to treat anxiety, depression, issues related to gender/sexuality, interpersonal issues, and building self-awareness and assertiveness skills.

Through the course of a day, we all play multiple roles. Sometimes those roles can become restrictive and rigid, even inauthentic, as anxiety, depression, or shame cause us to feel less and less able to share ourselves honestly with those around us. For some, the trusting relationship created in therapy offers one of the few places where hiding is no longer necessary and one's whole self can be acknowledged without judgment, without shame. Together, we will create an environment conducive to the exploration of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that lends to greater self-understanding, new perspectives, and lasting change.

Are you feeling sad and hopeless? Has your childhood and life experiences led to depression and anxiety? Would you like to identify how your emotions, thoughts and behaviors impact you, your self-esteem, and your relationships with others? Have you experienced trauma including relationship-related trauma that negatively impact your interpersonal relationships? If so, I can help you uncover and challenge the core beliefs holding you back. Core beliefs like, “I’m not enough”, “the world is unfair”, and “I am a failure” often occur without our awareness and contribute to emotion dysregulation, trauma responses, depression and anxiety.

The road to finding peace of mind and a clear vision for one's life can be difficult to navigate. Acknowledging that you desire change is often the first step towards clarity. Many then find that they need further guidance, which is what has likely brought you here. I believe it is important for my clients to recognize and then use their strengths, past successes, supportive relationships (including the therapeutic one) and own hopes to obtain whatever goal they set forth. Moving forward I hope to build a strong and supportive therapeutic relationship which we can use toward a self-fulfilling and clear future.
