Greetings! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who, for twenty years, has been helping others to live and lead their best lives. While my more recent work has been with Active-Duty service members and veterans, I have also worked extensively with adults of all ages in a variety of settings, such as inpatient and outpatient. I have far-reaching experience with helping people to manage addiction, process trauma and loss, cope with mental illness, and take on the challenges of everyday life. I earned my MSW and BS from the University of Utah, but I grew up in Connecticut. I hold the sanctity of the therapeutic relationship seriously and, as such, your comfort and privacy are exceptionally important to me.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut. I have over 15 years of experience in the Mental Health field and have been practicing as an LPC for the past few years. I work with adults and specialize in CPTSD and Trauma. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and trained in Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems informed.
I prefer to work with individuals who are interested in EMDR and have done previous therapy.
I am passionate towards helping individuals find appropriate healing techniques, unleash their strengths, and discover their inner potential to benefit their lives positively, through emotional, cognitive, and physical growth. I empower individuals to work from within by focusing on varying approaches that are individualized to their needs. I practice with a caring, compassionate, respectable, and culturally sensitive approach; while also challenging individuals to reach their greatest potential.
I place emphasis on person-centered therapeutic approaches and believe that no single approach is right for every individual. I have been trained in other varying modalities, including trauma informed therapeutic modalities: Gestalt Therapy, Gestalt Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Active Parenting, alternative to family’s cognitive behavioral therapy, strengths-based, body centered therapy, Applied Behavioral Analysis, and therapeutic modalities utilizing art and music.
I have experience working with children, adolescents and adults in community mental health, educational resource centers for veterans & students with disabilities, residential facilities, and private practice. I also have a huge passion for and a wide array of experience working with individuals through animal assisted interventions approaches including dolphins, canines, and horses.
I also utilize a therapy dog Rex, to assist with sessions. Rex has received specialized training to become a therapy dog. He is very compassionate, affectionate, and attuned to individuals.

Seeking strength, understanding, and a path forward? I'm not your typical therapist. I've walked the walk that you have, not just once, but twice. As a former Marine and law enforcement officer, I know firsthand the pressures, traumas, and unique challenges faced by those in service and beyond. Now, I leverage my experience and clinical expertise to guide individuals grappling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and the invisible wounds of trauma.
