I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with experience supporting young and middle-aged adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relational conflict, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are navigating career stress, relationship challenges, identity shifts, or feeling overwhelmed by competing responsibilities. My background in social work shapes the way I view mental health within the context of family systems, culture, and life experiences. I strive to create a space that feels supportive, grounded and respectful of your unique story.
I work compassionately with generally high-functioning adults who may be experiencing a range of potential symptoms that diminish their mental and/or physical health and well-being. These may include anxiety, perfectionism, and performance challenges; self-esteem and self-worth; body image and disordered eating; managing chronic disease; grief and loss; depression; relationship challenges with friends, partners, and family members; and life and career transitions that may include finding meaning in life. I often work with people who simply find life is easier when they have a non-judgmental connection outside of their usual circles.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I believe mental health ties to many different aspects of our lives. Many people find it difficult to ask for help and I can see the difference when people make that first step. My goal is that people do not struggle alone and I am here to help. I work with adults of all ages but really enjoy working with couples and women who experience anxiety, depression, or PTSD.
Welcome! I provide individual therapy for college/ graduate students, professionals, and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, crises of meaning, and the deeper questions that arise in times of uncertainty. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected- from themselves, others, or a clear sense of purpose. Our work together explores not just symptom relief, but what it means to live more fully and authentically. Together, we reconnect with your values, develop practical skills for navigating life's challenges, and explore the deeper patterns and past experiences that may be shaping your present.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Framingham starts with identifying what kind of care you need. Consider whether you're looking for talk therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges — or whether medication management from a psychiatrist might also be helpful. Providers on Headway include licensed therapists (such as LMHCs, LICSWs, and psychologists) as well as psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners, so you can find the right type of care in one place.
From there, think about what matters most to you in a provider. Some people prioritize a specific therapeutic approach like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or trauma-informed care, while others focus on practical details like virtual availability or evening appointments. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and specialties before you reach out.
Therapy in Framingham can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs, and your expense may be as low as $0 per session depending on your plan. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and see an estimated session cost before you book.
