Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Connecticut. I first entered the field of social work in 2017, and have enjoyed working with a wide range of clientele. I believe that we can all find the beauty that lies in our human experiences, and that our gateway to healing is found within. It is my goal to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore and honor your experience, while nurturing your spirit and personal growth.

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

In our first session we will begin with introducing ourselves and exploring some of your background and what brought you here. In a safe and compassionate space, we will work together to create an individualized plan to assist you in reaching your therapeutic goals. It is my goal to ensure that you feel heard and understood as we embark on this journey together.

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

I have worked with a wide range of individuals in a number of different settings that have contributed to my growth as a professional in providing culturally competent care to those who are seeking support. Having worked with children, adolescents and adults, I have been able to refine my treatment methods, in particular with attachment-based approaches.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Many of us reach a point where we begin to notice how some of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors have negatively impacted our functioning. We begin to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. I draw from a range of approaches with an emphasis on psychodynamic and attachment-based therapies in order to help my clients navigate how these emotions and behaviors may have taken root, recognize the impact on their day to day lives, and work toward personal change. My passion lies in working with adoptees as we explore how early childhood attachment traumas have impacted functioning whether it be during a life transition, grief, day to day stress, parenting, or within a relationship. We can work together to acknowledge these experiences and greet them with compassion as we move toward healing.

My treatment methods

Psychodynamic

The goal in using this approach is to help us identify how your experiences have shaped and informed how you respond to your emotions, as well as your response to the world around you. When we can identify patterns that contribute to unwanted behaviors and suffering, we can work together toward positive change.

Attachment-based

Our caregivers are the first people who teach us how to love and who help us form our own sense of self-worth. This method can help us in exploring how early childhood experiences with our caregivers can inform the lens through which we perceive ourselves as well as our connections to others in adulthood. Together, we can explore how this is impacting your experience and work toward re-framing and repair.
