Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Flavia! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a background in psychology and extensive experience working with individuals and families from different cultures and walks of life. Much of my career has been dedicated to community mental health, including In-Home Therapy, family support, and collaboration with DCF and other community services.

These experiences have taught me that everyone has a story worth understanding. I bring a warm, approachable, and genuine personality into my work, and I believe building a strong connection is one of the most important parts of therapy.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I want therapy to feel like a natural conversation rather than a formal interview. I listen without judgment, ask thoughtful questions, and encourage you to explore your experiences at your own pace.

I believe there is room for both serious conversations and moments of humor in therapy. Together, we'll identify your strengths, explore patterns that may be holding you back, and develop practical ways to navigate life's challenges.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, trusting connection. I'll take time to learn about you, what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to achieve. There's no pressure to share everything right away or have all the answers.

My style is warm, relaxed, and conversational, so you can expect an open, judgment-free space where you can be yourself. We'll explore your concerns, discuss your strengths, and begin identifying goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you. Most importantly, I want you to leave feeling heard, supported, and comfortable taking the next step together.
