Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Salem, MA

I have been practicing as a licensed therapist for 10 years and specialize in helping people reclaim their lives by healing from the pain of trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am trained as a clinical mental health counselor with additional specializations in play therapy and trauma focused work. I work with all populations from preteen into adulthood.

I’m committed to assisting you in moving forward and making changes in your life through empowerment. Often, individuals feel powerless to make needed changes in their life. As a result, they stop believing in themselves, give up and stop taking the risks they need to in order to make change.

I offer a warm, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are—no pressure, no judgment. As a therapist with a rich blend of personal and professional experience, I work with compassion and honesty to help you sort through anxiety, self-doubt, relationship struggles, parenting stress, etc.

Whether you're facing the emotional complexities of infertility, the adjustments of postpartum life, or the weight of past traumas, I bring both personal warmth and advanced clinical expertise to help you feel grounded, supported, and empowered.

I’ve been working with women, children and families for over 15 years in individual counseling, group settings, and program development. My expertise lies in helping people understand their own emotional experience, to use words not violence, to cope, to reduce impulsive and compulsive behavior, to advocate for themselves.

I believe to live fully, we must feel. Intensely. Viscerally. Freely. To feel pride and pain, joy and frustration. To taste the freedoms of life, as well as its restraints. To reconcile thoughts, actions and emotions that are often at odds. To square all of this with culture, beliefs, and history. To live fully is when a sense of equity, equality and balance is awakened. To live fully is to gain perspective and know that you can weather all of it, and not be overcome by these complexities, but learn to integrate them, for a full life.
