This form of treatment allows parents to re-define boundaries in their parenting relationship, move away from conflict and establish a working relationship as co-parenting partners.
Thank you for exploring my page on Psychology Today. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I provide individual, couples and family therapy with an approach that integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy and family systems models. (I do not treat children or adolescents in my practice.) My role as therapist is to help stimulate change by facilitating conversations that explore and lead to new ways of thinking about your life and relationships, and ways to initiate meaningful change.

I value the therapeutic relationship as a means to foster growth and I meet clients where they’re at to develop a genuine relationship in order to have the best foundation to heal.
Are you a woman struggling with the complexities of biological, environmental, societal and relational pressures? Or, are you having difficulty with the demands of life and feeling physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausted? You are not alone in this. As women, we live in a society that constantly implies that who we are isn’t enough. But, change is possible. Over the years I’ve developed a specialty working with women who are pregnant or have recently given birth, are struggling with depression, anxiety or self-esteem, or who have a history of experiencing childhood trauma. Oftentimes, my clients identify with all of these.

With my foundation firmly rooted in the therapeutic relationship I utilize best practices in Neuroscience, Positive Psychology, and ACT to support you in bringing forth the best within you.
I believe within each of us is a powerful energy we can use to expand our lives. In moving beyond our limiting beliefs and the places where we get stuck, we open to our potential. Learning to manage our thoughts and emotions consciously, from a place of alignment with our values, allows us to identify and express the best version of us more consistently. It is just a matter of time before our external world begins reflecting these internal changes.

I believe in the power of a person-centered therapeutic relationship.
I am deeply dedicated to working with children, adolescents, and young adults. My practice prioritizes children and adolescents because personal and professional experiences have shown me that there aren't enough spaces where they can show up as they are and receive attunement and positive regard. I strive to provide a safe space for clients to receive both in support of their journey through life and personal growth/development. As a neurodivergent, first generation college graduate, with a nontraditional family, I enjoy offering therapeutic space to clients with any of those identities/experiences.

Adjusting to NYC or moving back to your home town? Confused about the path you chose?

Through exploration of your personal story, we can process, accept, and let go of unhealthy patterns. I have strong engagement skills, aware of how therapy feels.

As a clinical psychologist, my goal is to earn your trust and build a safe, affirming relationship within which we work collaboratively toward your goals. I firmly believe that the relationship we build is itself a healing tool, independent of any specific intervention we use to address your concerns. I bring a transparent, consistent-yet-flexible, and partnership-based approach to treatment. Accurate diagnosis is important, but you are more than a diagnostic label or list of symptoms. I strive to know you as the whole and complex person you are.

Some of human suffering is about the way we experience the events of our lives rather than the things themselves. Therapy offers an opportunity to bring awareness to our experiences and change our relationship to them rather than try to change the events themselves. Through this approach, we gain a sense of control in our lives and positively experience and influence its direction. If we believe that we have power within us to achieve health and happiness, then the events in our lives that cause us pain and suffering can be seen as an opportunity to learn about ourselves and experience personal growth.

I am experienced working in therapy with individuals and couples who face challenges related to: Postpartum adjustment, anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma/PTSD, stress management, major life adjustments, neurodevelopmental concerns, family dynamics, parenting, relationship issues, and more.
Hello! Thank you for considering me as your psychologist. I am taking new patients for both therapy and psychological evaluations. I am accepting virtual therapy patients throughout the state of Maine and in-person patients at my office in Blue Hill for therapy and evaluations. I utilize a variety of approaches based on patient needs, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, exposure-based interventions, solution-focused approaches and trauma-informed treatment. I believe it is important to treat the whole person and not just the diagnosis, so we will also explore factors related to overall well-being.
