Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and am experienced and passionate about helping clients heal from trauma to better manage stress and anxiety, relationship issues, eating disorders, and more. I've been trained in various modalities and take an integrative approach. I am bicultural, raised in Italy and the US. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage. Getting started is something to feel proud of, and I would be honored to support you on your journey to health and healing.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I also have experience in and love to help those struggling with religious or spiritual beliefs, autism, ADHD, sexuality/intimacy, OCD/control issues, aging, motherhood, depression and self esteem. I believe that YOU are the expert of your story! The answers are within you.

What you can expect from our first session

This will not be "talk therapy," but a treatment that will help you excavate the gems of your strengths within and reroute thought processes to help you heal, achieve your goals, and create the beautiful life you deserve (even if you don't feel deserving).
