In today's world, mental health support is needed more than ever. Mental health IS health. It's time to end the stigma and realize it's okay to not be okay. Finding a therapist can be a daunting process but congratulations on taking the first step! As a therapist, I aim to foster an environment that is warm, collaborative, supportive, and nonjudgmental. I'm a licensed independent clinical social worker in Massachusetts and earned my Masters in Social Work degree from Boston College. I also have a Bachelor's degree in history. I view the counseling process as an alliance between client and therapist and consider the clients experts of their lives. Within the structure of the therapeutic relationship, clients can access their inner strengths and promote change. I use a combination of modalities that include but are not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy. My theoretical approach is based on the belief that clients are in charge of their counseling experience. They will learn the bounds of aspects of their life that they can control and what they cannot. Clients will understand that the therapeutic relationship is a partnership in which they will be expected to put in the effort for homework, be accountable, and present within the counseling alliance. Please note: I am only licensed in Massachusetts, and working towards being licensed in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Illinois. Therefore, I can only see clients in Massachusetts. If you are on college break in another state, or on vacation in another state or country, I can see you once you return to the state. There are other clinicians who are licensed in more than one state that may be more suitable if you are someone who travels outside of the state often.

I enjoy working with individuals who are 18 years or older. My clients wish to improve their lives, address symptoms of Trauma, CPTSD, PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression. I also work with those who are struggling with grief, life changes, workplace bullying and self-esteem. I offer a free, one-time 15-minute phone consultation so that we can determine if I am a good fit for your goals. Please contact me via the Growtherapy messaging system or at newpathwayscounseling@proton.me if you do not see a time open for consult that works for your schedule.
