Following more than a decade in the field of social services, I started my journey of providing direct mental health services in 2015. I have extensive experience working with older adults, children, and adults with disabilities, doing in-home therapy, as well as in office settings. In addition to direct clinical therapy, I have worked with survivors of domestic violence for several years. Using a strengths-based, solution-focused approach, together, we will define your goals and consider the challenges you may face in achieving them. We will navigate your environmental systems and supports as well as identify your inner strengths, making it possible to alleviate the symptoms that have caused you to seek treatment. The power to change lies within you! *Currently not taking clients from Lynn, Lynnfield, Saugus, Swampscott, Nahant

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

What is holding you back from living your happiest life? In our first session you will provide me with your personal history and fill me in on what it is that brings you in for treatment. What symptoms do you want to alleviate? From there, we will come up with a plan and get to work.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I understand that it is not always easy to discuss your insecurities and challenges with a new provider. I get it! I strive to be kind, compassionate and empathetic. No judgements here! We can move at your own pace and focus on your goals. I will provide guidance in setting objectives in order to achieve your goals and support you as you work through the process.
