Hello! I know seeking therapy can be overwhelming and I am so happy you are here. The hardest part is often reaching out to get started. I earned my masters degree from Assumption University and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with adults who are struggling with a variety of mental disorders such as low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. In session, we will work to identify and address any challenges you may be facing as well as develop skills to manage your symptoms.
I am a seasoned professional who specializes in working with highly sensitive people. My varied training including Gestalt therapy, EMDR, Life Coaching and Hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique and Spiritual Response Therapy enables me to help you go deep, get to the root of an issue, and create satisfying resolutions.
I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, New Mexico where a transpersonal approach was fostered, that is, taking into account the psychological as well as the spiritual aspects of our clients. I also studied at the Coaches Training Institute, EMDRIA for EMDR training, The Gestalt Institute of Santa Fe, the Hypnotherapy Academy of America in Albuquerque NM, and the Spiritual Response Association. I am also a life-long meditator and spiritual practitioner. In addition to working as a therapist for the last 21 years, I have been a marketing director, a psychic and a life coach.
Many of my clients are healers, therapists, teachers, artists, psychics and spiritual practitioners. They are seeking someone who can understand their rich inner world as well as the challenges of their outer world. They are seeking a therapist who can track intuitively and work with them respectfully to release unwanted limiting beliefs and traumas so that they can truly shine and achieve their goals.
I am currently writing a book called, "The Misfit Mystic" which addresses the issue of struggling to fit into society with psychic and spiritual sensibilities.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington
Finding the right therapist in Arlington, MA starts with identifying the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or another challenge, a licensed provider with relevant experience can make a meaningful difference. Arlington is home to a range of mental health professionals — including licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), licensed clinical social workers (LICSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — many of whom offer both in-person and virtual sessions.
As you compare providers, consider what matters most to you beyond credentials. A provider's therapeutic approach, communication style, and areas of focus can all shape your experience. Reading detailed bios and scheduling a free phone consultation are two practical ways to assess fit before committing to ongoing care.
Therapy in the greater Boston area can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit.
