Great to meet you!

I am a mother, wife, veteran and clinician from the Northeast. I have grown my experience and passion for diverse populations. I provide counseling for adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, mood instability, and trauma.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based interventions, i.e., EMDR, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and Trauma Therapy, to assist you in the process of transformation.

What you can expect from me

My passion is to partner with you to move through feelings and thoughts in a safe space. To help you quiet the inner judge/critic and rise above to a place of inner safety, joy, and love. To support your transformation of the person you were truly meant to be and encourage affirmations that you are more than enough.
