Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
I’m here to create a safe, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and concerns. I’m open-minded, non-judgmental, and always receptive to feedback, so we can work together in a way that feels right for you.
How does collaboration with other providers play into your work?
Working together with your other providers can often lead to the best results, and I’m more than happy to collaborate as needed. I’ll make sure to communicate any important concerns or requests you’d like me to share, so your care feels as seamless and supported as possible.
What is your style/approach to therapy?
I believe therapy should move at a pace that feels right for you. My approach is to get to know you and find ways to support you in a way that feels comfortable and encouraging. I’m here as a guide, offering support and encouragement every step of the way as you grow and explore.

Education
University of Southern Maine, Master of Science, rehabilitation counseling, 2013 — My graduate track included rehabilitative counseling and additional courses for clinical professional counseling.
Work HistoryWhen I started my journey as a therapist, I spent years providing support to clients and their families in their homes and out in the community, guided by some incredible mentors (who still inspire me today!). Later, I moved into private practice, where I work with older teens and adults one-on-one. I’ve grown especially passionate about supporting neurodiverse clients, and I recently expanded my skills with specialized ADHD training. I love continuing to learn so I can provide the best care for everyone I work with.
