Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training to become supervisors. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases, which means that, when working with them, you are getting the time and expertise of multiple therapists in your treatment.

I’m a huge cyclist. If biking has taught me one thing, it’s that you can accomplish almost anything if you set a goal and work towards it consistently. The same is true in therapy. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, or life transitions, you can move forward in your life by setting goals, taking steps every day to reach them, and celebrating success along the way. We all have the capacity for resilience while facing adversity. Everyone deserves a space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences safely. It often feels difficult to take the step to seek support, but know you don't need to face this alone. I consider it a privilege to listen to your story, be a resource, and assist you in making sustainable life changes. I became a therapist so I could help people create healthier patterns, work through difficult emotions, and overcome adversity. My clients are so resilient. It’s rewarding for me to offer support and a warm, nonjudgmental space as they’re processing their experiences, unpacking their patterns, and learning to cope with life’s stressors and anxieties.

All of us experience stress, anxiety, and unhelpful patterns. Sometimes, it’s difficult to notice their insidious effects on our wellbeing. When you think of stressors, your mind might go to your demanding job, family dynamics, recent break-up, or financial difficulties. Trust me, I've been there. However stress is manifesting in your day-to-day life, I'm here to help you learn effective coping strategies, discover what your triggers are, and create an action plan for finding calm in the chaos. Most people already have the inner strength to navigate life's challenges, but haven't unlocked it yet. Discovering your strengths is a core foundation for our work together. I’ll celebrate your successes and call out what’s going well to help you build self esteem, improve confidence, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. I also use methodologies proven to disrupt unhelpful patterns and make handling challenging life situations easier.

One of my strengths is connecting with clients and ensuring they feel seen and heard. Whatever you're going through, I'll validate and normalize your feelings while providing a framework for understanding your experience, managing triggers, and creating strategies to prevent or reduce long-term stress. I have a way of keeping things light—even as we’re exploring darker or heavier topics—and enjoy sprinkling some humor throughout a session. This approach helps clients see situations from different angles. It also makes it easier to discuss things that might be challenging or uncomfortable. I can stay present with my clients while they work through intense emotions or hard topics. As you’re processing your experiences, I’ll walk with you through your healing journey—and all the ups and down that come with it.

Before attending graduate school at Boston College, I provided therapeutic support for students with behavioral and mental health challenges. Since then, I've worked in school (Bridger Boston Charter School), community (Good Shepherd Community Care), and group practice settings. For the past year, I've primarily been seeing clients via telehealth at a small group practice. I am now a proud member of the Resilience Lab mental health collective. Resilience Lab is the largest community of clinicians working collaboratively to improve mental health access by creating a space for people across the United States to cope with life’s stressors. When you need support, we want to make sure you can work with the industry’s best therapists at an affordable price.
