Life can be challenging, and sometimes we all need a space to reflect, gain perspective, and move forward with greater clarity. I am a licensed therapist in Maine and Massachusetts with experience working with adults navigating depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, career concerns, relationship challenges, and addiction. Whether you're struggling to find balance, coping with uncertainty, or feeling stuck, I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

My approach is warm, affirming, and collaborative. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable being yourself while working toward your goals. Drawing from person-centered therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavioral Activation, I help clients build on their strengths, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful change. While therapy can be challenging, I believe there is also room for authenticity, self-compassion, and even humor along the way.

Our first session is a space for you to share what’s bringing you in at your own pace. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your current experiences, history, and goals, but there’s no pressure to tell your whole story at once. We’ll begin building a sense of what you need from therapy and how I can support you. My goal is for you to leave the session feeling heard, understood, and a bit clearer about next steps.
