Great to meet you!

Welcome, let me share a little about myself. I have over twenty-three years of practice as a Clinical Social Worker. I graduated from Boston University, and I love engaging people of all ages, from 24 to elders, on their life's journey, partnering with them to move beyond struggling to thriving.

My approach to therapy

As a Clinician, I love collaborating with people from all walks of life. I will respect your journey and offer a non-judgmental attitude. Allow me the opportunity to earn your trust. I offer a variety of evidence-based treatment approaches, including E.M.D.R. (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and C.B.T., that are effective and holistic.

What you can expect from me

I believe all people can be resilient when coping with uncertainty. Cultivating self-acceptance will enable you to find the courage within yourself to guide you through your deepest fears. Adapting to change is easier when you have someone to walk alongside you and help guide you on your journey.
