Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker and having been working in the mental health field for approximately five years, in a variety of settings. For the last four years, I have been doing community-based crisis work and strive to meet my clients where they are at and find solutions to best support them. I received my MSW at Boston College and have been working in the Capital Region of NY for the past six years. I look forward to welcoming you to therapy and congratulations on taking a meaningful step towards your future!

My approach to therapy

I am focused on solution based therapy, with the goal of helping my clients establish goals and make meaningful, tangible progress in their day to day life. I specialize in working with adults who have experienced trauma and loss. I am also experienced in working with adult with severe and persistent mental illness, as well as supporting their loved ones, who are trying to cope with difficult situations.

What you can expect from me

I am committed to creating a safe, supportive environment for my clients. In our first session, you can expect a small introduction of myself, my therapeutic approach, expectations for confidentiality, and protocols for crisis situations. I'll ask that you bring your own expectations and goals to a first session, so that we can collaboratively establish a treatment plan, together.
