Through the world of therapy, I hope to bring more education and support to pregnant and postpartum people. My style of counseling is positive, person-centered and solution-focused. I believe that the most important part of perinatal mental health is prevention; entering into therapy prior to or during pregnancy is the most effective way to process birth and postpartum. I will provide a safe and soothing environment for all of my clients to work through their identified needs. I also have training in working with college-aged students and specifically athletes. I am licensed in both MA and CT.

I believe it is important to establish therapy for moms to be and received continued support through pregnancy and postpartum. I also work with moms who experienced miscarriages and infant loss. I am also able to support college students through early adulthood transitions, sports and relationships.

If you are in the beginning stages of planning for a family or you are postpartum, I am here to support you through these transitions. I also have extensive work with family systems so even older children and parenting support. Currently I am working on an athletic college campus so I am opening private practice to college students as well.

As a therapist rooted in Buddhist principles, my approach respects the innate wisdom each individual possesses. I believe clients are their own best experts in healing, and my role is to support them in uncovering their truths and navigating their journeys toward healing and self-discovery.

I hold a Master's in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University, which has enriched my understanding and practice of therapeutic techniques. I strive to create a safe, compassionate space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Within this sanctuary, we work collaboratively to shift perspectives, fostering greater happiness and joy.

Ultimately, my deepest aspiration as a therapist is to facilitate a healing environment where individuals feel seen, heard, and valued.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor who truly cares about creating a safe, supportive space where people feel comfortable being themselves. I work with individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, emotional regulation, parent/child concerns, and many of life’s difficult transitions.

I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming. Opening up about painful or uncomfortable parts of your life takes courage, and you don’t have to do it alone. I’ve dedicated myself to learning the skills needed to walk alongside people during these moments, at a pace that feels right for them. For me, this work is more than a career — it’s a calling.
