Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts. I received my Masters from the Montclair State University and have been practicing for 4 years. I help young adults struggling with anxiety, parenthood, postpartum, and life stressors by using the Internal Family Systems model of therapy. I have completed my Level 1 training in the IFS model, and love bringing this gentle healing model to clients.

My approach to therapy

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into what is bringing your into therapy right now. We will introduce the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy and begin with a mindfulness exercise that you can bring into your week.

What you can expect from me

Having worked with young adults (and gone through this life transition myself!), I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you identify the parts of yourself that are most overwhelmed by anxiety and provide tangible steps to build resilience and healthy ways of coping.
