As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) working with clients in both California and Massachusetts, I am deeply passionate about supporting women through life’s transitions and challenges, particularly during the perinatal period. As someone who has personally navigated the complexities of birth trauma and postpartum mood disorders, I understand the profound emotional and physical toll that this time can take. I believe that no one should ever feel alone, isolated, or overwhelmed by stigma, fear, or a lack of support, especially when it comes to maternal mental health.

At Socratic Wellness, I provide integrative therapy grounded in collaboration, curiosity, and practical growth. I specialize in working with veterans, first responders, and individuals looking to improve communication skills, manage trauma, or navigate life transitions. My approach is client-centered and adaptable, drawing from a range of evidence-based modalities to meet you where you are. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and take meaningful action, even in the presence of difficult thoughts and emotions. EMDR is available for processing trauma and building nervous system resilience. I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to explore patterns, support behavior change, and strengthen internal motivation. My style is warm, respectful, and engaged. I often use Socratic questioning to encourage insight and deeper self-understanding, and I draw from existential perspectives to explore identity, purpose, and meaning — especially during times of uncertainty or change. I take an eclectic approach, customizing therapy based on your goals, needs, and strengths. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself or others, therapy can be a place to sort through what’s getting in the way and reconnect with what matters most. You don’t need to show up with answers — just a willingness to explore. Together, we’ll build a space that supports reflection, healing, and forward movement at your own pace.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Massachusetts rather than a city like Boston?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Massachusetts from Springfield to Cape Cod! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Massachusetts.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
