Mass General Brigham Health Plan Therapists in Worcester, MA

Currently Accepting New Clients: I am a Bilingual Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who speaks both English and my native language of French Creole. “If you’re always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.” Normalcy is only judged by ourselves and within ourselves.

I am NOT accepting new clients. My primary focus is working with women aged 30 years and older. If you are ready to make changes in your life, there is help. I specialize in working with woman who are motivated towards healing and wholeness. My primary focus is women, particularly those with a history of trauma. We’ll explore the feelings that arise in your body and notice their links to your thoughts and behaviors. I’ll empower you to choose a more positive narrative, to look at your life through a different lens.

I engage with individuals by meeting them where they are. My practice focuses on clients with a history of trauma, or with problems related to mood or anxiety. I aim to help clients learn about themselves, and how to respond to life rather than react to it.

It is with gratitude that I hold space for you. The therapeutic relationship is an important tool used to build a solid and trusting relationship with yourself, the world around you, and the people within it. I work with humans who may be struggling to cope with life's unpredictable and impermanent nature, with life transitions, anxiety, grief, trauma, and other forms of emotional pain. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore patterns of thinking and living that have hindered your growth and prevented you from engaging wholeheartedly in your life.

Are you looking for a coachy therapist? or a therapisty coach? Are you feeling not heard or seen in your relationships? Have you not accomplished your goals - personally or professionally? I enjoy working collaboratively with motivated adults looking to understand the barriers to full expression and fulfillment in their lives. I tend to be direct and engage in lots of active dialogue in order to provide alternative viewpoints from which people gain insight and grow to achieve their goals. I believe we are all perfect, and life events interrupt our belief of that. We can heal this belief through exploration and understanding.

Currently accepting new clients that are first responders and individuals seeking support around substance use (10/2/23). What if I told you recovery is more than sobriety and is a completely unique process? I believe everyone is in recovery from something. I support individuals in exploring, identifying, and building compassion for all parts of self allowing them to heAl. My therapeutic perspective is strongly influenced by Internal Family Systems, a non-pathologizing approach. I utilize a range of therapeutic modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing and am also trained in EMDR.

Change is possible. Our darkest moments and greatest challenges can lead to the most powerful transformations. Whether you are struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, loss or relationship issues I will work with you with compassion and respect while guiding you to effectively make desired changes. As a trained and licensed mental health counselor, I understand how trauma, oppression, life changes, conflictual thoughts, loss and emotional instability can lead us to feel disconnected from ourselves and others.

Welcome! Since you are reading this, you may have identified aspects of your life that could be better; I want to assure you that beginning therapy is courageous. Therapy is a self-directed process where you can walk away knowing that you took the first step in participating with your life. If presented with the opportunity, I will work with you to connect with your strengths while utilizing your truth, comfortability, and resilience to support you during your journey of self-development.

Let's have a conversation. I'll offer a fresh perspective and strategies for managing anxiety, reducing relationship tensions, and coping with change. Together, we’ll focus on your strengths and explore next steps toward feeling more hopeful. I use a blend of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral and conflict resolution techniques,

I am Social Worker (LICSW) who earned my Master’s in Social Work at the University of New Hampshire. I work with adolescents, young adults and families who are impacted by anxiety, depression, family conflict, school issues, grief and trauma. I have worked in both residential and outpatient settings.

Facing change can be overwhelming. As I guide people through the process, I operate from a place of compassion, authenticity, and empathy. This may look different depending on the problems at hand. With addiction, I hold clients accountable to following through with their recovery plan. I do not shy away from defenses, manipulation, or games played by the addicted mind. With mental health problems, I tend to follow my client’s lead, offering support and suggestions/techniques grounded in science, research, and my experience. I also specialize in treating family members with loved ones struggling with addiction recover on their own.
