Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving adults in Massachusetts and New York. I work with adults navigating anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and challenges with time management. I provide an empathetic, nonjudgmental space where you can feel validated and understood while building insight, resilience, and practical strategies.

I support individuals who are focused on building meaningful relationships, navigating dating burnout, and adjusting to life transitions such as marriage and parenthood.

My approach to therapy is warm, nonjudgmental, and skills-focused. I draw on a variety of therapeutic models, with a primary emphasis on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to support adults who are struggling with anxious or intrusive thoughts. I work closely with clients to teach practical strategies they can use in school, at work, in dating, and in relationships, helping them navigate life’s transitions and flourish during these important stages. For me, therapy is not just about understanding challenges but equipping clients with tools they can apply in their daily lives.

The first step in therapy is gaining a comprehensive understanding of your life and identifying the areas you want to focus on. My goal is to help clients develop practical skills to manage challenging symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, and inattention. I work collaboratively with each person to create strategies that are both effective and tailored to their unique needs.
