Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or navigating a difficult transition, my goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard and understood.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with experience supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship and family concerns, and life transitions. I also have specialized experience as a Clinical Autism Spectrum Disorder Specialist, supporting individuals on the autism spectrum and helping them navigate relationships, emotions, communication, daily challenges, and life transitions.

My approach is person-centered and collaborative. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you with compassion, support, and guidance. I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thought patterns, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change.

I earned my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling, with a specialization in Addiction Counseling, from Cambridge College in 2014, and have worked in the mental health field since 2012.

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin wherever you are, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. If you're ready to take that first step, I would be honored to work with you.

My approach involves a judgement free environment, a safe place to talk through difficult and sometimes hurtful thoughts and information, and reflect on your experiences in order to improve how you are managing life.

Clients can expect to leave feeling affirmed and validated, ready to tackle the days ahead.
