With over 15 years of experience in mental health, I am passionate about helping individuals of all ages improve their emotional well-being.
Life can bring moments that feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming—whether from anxiety, trauma, relationship strain, or loss of direction. You may feel stuck or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating. Therapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore what’s holding you back and create a path toward emotional clarity, healing, and growth. Together, we’ll uncover the “why” behind your challenges and help you move toward a calmer, more balanced, and empowered version of yourself.
I'm a nurse practitioner with six years of experience across inpatient, partial hospitalization, and outpatient psychiatric settings. I specialize in addiction and substance use, depression, and general psychiatry — working exclusively with adults. After years of high-paced clinical work, I built a telehealth practice designed around real life: I see patients evenings and Saturday mornings, so quality psychiatric care doesn't have to compete with your workday. I take a practical, no-nonsense approach — focused on what actually helps you move forward.
Finding a provider can be challenging, overwhelming, and at times embarrassing. I have been in treatment for over 20 years, which prompted me to want to support other people like me. I am proficient in DBT as these skills have saved my life.
I am a woman in recovery, have been in psychiatric units, have a child with another woman, and attempted to end my life. I am healing everyday and you are part of that process.
I have worked with a variety of populations. I am passionate about working with other mental health professionals struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am honored to work with first responders (fire fighters, police, paramedics, doctors, etc). You are not alone. I understand the complex dynamics associated with seeking help.
Life doesn't come with a roadmap and it's normal to feel overwhelmed at times. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, cultural or identity concerns, grief/loss, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and approachable space where you can explore your experiences and take meaningful steps towards change.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals across outpatient and emergency settings I bring a grounded and compassionate perspective to therapy. This background allows me to meet clients where they are whether they're seeking immediate relief or working toward deeper personal growth.

Hello there. Thanks for checking out my profile.
I don't know what brings you to this tiny nook of the internet, on this particular day, but I am grateful and very curious to hear.
As a therapist, I've worked with adolescents and adults for over a decade; sharing in their challenges, connecting in laughter and kindness.
It would be my joy to learn your story and meet you with warmth, humor, and sincerity.
For the past two decades, I have worked with adults and older adults who have experienced loss, chronic disease , and patients who have experienced significant loss and grief. I have experience working in a primary care setting and long term care; my goal is to support both your body and mind and find hope, guidance and validation.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through trauma, anxiety, depression, family challenges, and major life transitions. I earned my degree from Simmons University with a focus in Trauma Studies, and I have worked in both school-based therapy and medical settings as a social worker. This background allows me to understand how emotional stress shows up in different parts of life, including school, family systems, and health-related challenges.

Frequently asked questions
Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cambridge
Finding the right therapist in Cambridge starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or trauma — or whether you're looking for broader mental health care like medication management. Therapists, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists each bring different training and specializations, so knowing what type of provider fits your needs can help you narrow your search.
From there, practical details matter. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions in Cambridge or virtual appointments, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's therapeutic approach — such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — aligns with what you're looking for. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their style and areas of focus.
Therapy in Cambridge can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
