I earned my Bachelor of Nursing from University of Connecticut (Go Huskies!) before moving to Boston to start my career in bedside nursing in 2019. After serving as an RN and Director of Nursing at a residential treatment center, I earned my PMHNP at Regis College to specialize in mental health. Since then, I’ve gained diverse experience providing cutting-edge ketamine therapy in outpatient clinics and managing complex cases in inpatient psychiatry. Now, I’m bringing that clinical expertise—along with post-graduate training in CBT—to my full-time private practice, where I provide comprehensive, compassionate care for patients navigating anxiety, depression, OCD and ADHD in the South Boston area.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boston

Finding a family therapist in Boston starts with identifying what your family is working through. Family therapists are licensed providers trained to work with multiple family members — including parents and children, siblings, blended families, and extended relatives — on concerns like communication breakdowns, parenting disagreements, major life transitions, and unresolved conflict. Some providers also work with individual family members who want to improve how they show up in family relationships.

Boston has a large number of licensed family therapists, including LICSWs, LMHCs, LMFTs, and psychologists. When comparing providers, look for someone with experience in your family's specific situation and an approach that feels like the right match. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style before you reach out, and a free phone consultation can help you decide if they're the right fit.

Family therapy in Boston can be expensive, but using in-network insurance coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to see estimated costs upfront, so you know what to expect before your first appointment.
