“Peaceful are the empowered.” The focus of my practice is to empower individuals and families struggling with many of life's problems. Whether it is coping with COVID or over exposure to the media; dealing with stress from work, school, or a relationship; coping with an illness; or struggling with an addiction, life's problems can seem overwhelming and even debilitating at times. The good news is we hold the answers to our struggles, and can find them if given the opportunity to talk them out in a safe and judgment free environment.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker providing therapy to individuals in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Many of my clients have an interest in spirituality or spiritual practices & they identify as deep thinkers and want to learn more about themselves.

Over twenty years as an ordained minister and equestrian I noticed how horses were helping me, so I developed Integrative Equine Therapy. In a non-clinical environment, a horse and IET Therapist create a safe space. We guide, encourage and support you in removing blocks, building new neural pathways from the trauma center to the conscious part of your brain, making it possible to respond rather than react to triggers. We call this "shifting perspective." With IET, you can find clarity of purpose, meaning and joy. Brown University's independent data on our therapeutic approach shows the success of IET. We work with all ages.

Problems are meant to be worked on, people are meant to be worked with. The therapy process offers a way to work through your problems while you are partnered with, heard and supported. Many paths can be taken, all intersect with the paths of others. If your path involves grief over the loss of a loved one, relationship, health, home, job, way of life, part of yourself, then I can help. If, along the way, you struggle with ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, parenting or eldercare, I can equip you with tools and skills to help you cope.

Our work together will be suited to your needs. That is, one client may choose talk therapy, whereas another prefers the hands-on approach of energy field healing, and a third opts to combine both of these approaches. Regardless of the mode of treatment, we are always aware that the whole person includes body, mind and spirit and so will involve and integrate them as much as possible. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques including cognitive, skill building, Gestalt, client-centered, guided imagery, inner child work, or energy healing depending on the needs and style of growth of the client.

Over the past 14 years I have put together a unique system of problem solving and planning called "Growing The Whole Way". This system teaches how to think bigger and work with the mind, body, and spirit for better results in making change. It also supports taking care of yourself in the process. My workbook includes key concepts and practical strategies to help with motivation, organization, and meaningful planning. It also teaches efficiency along with follow through and self development. Once complete this book can become a personalized reference outside of session time. This system can also be used again for future goals.

My ideal client is a family or couple in the midst of a situational crisis. They may need help navigating changes such as: a member with special needs, adolescent years, an affair, remarriage/stepfamily issues, illness and death. I strongly believe many people have the capacity to manage life's challenges, however they may need to learn more skillful communication of their needs and desires.
