Great to meet you!

I believe in an integrative approach with a focus on self-healing through empowered choices and balance. I am intensively trained in both CBT and DBT and hold a certificate in Advanced Clinical Practice for Children, Youth, and Families from Boston College, where I also received my Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health. I am trained in multiple other interventions and will work with you to determine which approach fits best for your specific needs.

My approach to therapy

I aim to help others achieve their goals through the use of evidence-based practices, as well as, integrative and holistic practices to aid with an overall life balance. I believe in a person-centered, strength-based approach in a proactive and positive environment.

What you can expect from me

I meet people where they are and empower them to understand themselves on a deeper level. Every person's needs vary and the goal is to create positive transformation through integrative modalities. Some people may need to focus more on self-care and boundaries, while others may require more therapeutic interventions to affect behavioral concerns. I work together and partner with my clients and allow them to set the pace as well as self-determine.
