I believe some of the most meaningful work in therapy happens when you feel comfortable enough to be honest about the things that are hard to say out loud. I work primarily with women navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, and major life changes. I have a particular interest in working with women who are concerned about their alcohol use or are exploring what sobriety or a different relationship with alcohol might look like.

I’ve worked in the mental health field for over 10 years in a variety of roles and settings. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and earned my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from St. Bonaventure University. My experience has taught me that there’s rarely one “right” way to move through something difficult, and I strive to meet each client where they are.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I’ll help you explore patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while offering support, honest feedback, and gentle challenges when helpful. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and other evidence-based approaches, adapting therapy to fit you rather than expecting you to fit a specific approach.

Our first session is about getting to know you and what brought you to therapy. We’ll talk about what’s been going on, what you’d like to get out of therapy, and any questions or concerns you have. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. We’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
