LICSW, 15 years of experience
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and certified trauma specialist with a master's degree from Boston University. With 15 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping adults 18 and older gain insight into the factors shaping their mental health and improve their daily functioning. I believe in therapy’s transformative power to foster growth, resilience, and overall well-being.
In my sessions, clients can expect to gain insight into the factors influencing their mental health and develop practical strategies to enhance their daily functioning. I believe that therapy fosters meaningful change by promoting growth, resilience, and overall well-being. My approach is strengths-based and solution-focused, and I emphasize collaboration to help clients navigate difficult emotions, set achievable goals, and build the skills needed to manage symptoms effectively. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling empowered, more in control of their challenges, and equipped with tools to support their mental and emotional health.
I specialize in working with adults (18+) who are navigating the complexities of trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance use, and women’s issues. My therapeutic approach is rooted in strengths-based, solution-focused principles, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and empowerment. In our work together, I help clients deepen their understanding of the factors influencing their mental health and support them in enhancing their overall functioning and quality of life. I believe therapy can be a transformative process—one that cultivates resilience, promotes meaningful growth, and nurtures overall well-being. Within a warm, compassionate environment, I guide clients in exploring difficult emotions, setting achievable goals, and developing practical skills to manage symptoms effectively. I see my role as a trusted companion on your journey—offering insight, support, and evidence-based strategies to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and a greater sense of stability.
I’m especially well-suited to support clients working through anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions—those defining moments that, while often overwhelming, can also spark meaningful growth and transformation. The clients I work best with are self-reflective, open to growth, and willing to explore the challenges holding them back. Whether you're striving to break cycles rooted in past trauma, seeking relief from the weight of daily stressors, or searching for deeper self-awareness and life purpose, our work together will be collaborative and empowering. I believe that healing isn’t linear and that each step you take toward understanding yourself is a courageous one.
Exploring how our thoughts affect how we feel and behave is key to managing mental well-being
Solution focused therapy helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems
Strengths based approach focuses on the clients positive qualities, resources and resiliency which empowers them to improve their quality of life and reduce problematic behaviors.
This therapeutic modality is used to help clients identify the root cause of their emotional and behavioral patterns.
