I work best with clients who want a therapist who is direct and actively engaged in the process. I believe therapy should feel like a partnership, not a place you're talked at or judged. I feel strongly about the alliance feeling comfortable and natural. I'll always meet you where you're at and help you challenge patterns that may no longer be serving you.

I am an experienced licensed counselor (LMHC), but am always still learning! Whether I'm learning new things about the world of psychology, different therapy interventions, or learning new things from my clients, I am always learning, and I never feel like I "know it all" or "have all the answers." In fact, part of what I love about my job as a therapist is that I get to learn alongside my clients - especially information about my clients - and we often exchange valuable knowledge and information. I consider counseling a "collaboration," because the client only reaches their goals with a mutually agreed upon partnership between the therapist and client, coupled with a willingness on the client's part to do the work to achieve their goals.

These times are urgent. Let us slow down.” ― Bayo Akomolafe Let's take things one breath at a time, slowing down instead of rushing through the hard parts. I don’t believe in fixing or solving everything all at once in the hopes it does not reoccur. Instead, I offer space for curiosity, vulnerability, and connection, because that’s often where healing begins. Together we’ll practice being with your experiences, not just getting past them. I work with people facing all kinds of mental health and personal life challenges, and I especially love helping clients untangle old patterns and build new ones that feel more like them. My approach is relational and HUMOROUS, humanistic, honest, warm, and collaborative. I work mostly with teens and adults. Outside of therapy, I’m usually testing a new hairstyle, thrifting, listening to Afrobeats, or walking my dachshund, Winston-Bishop.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), and like many adults I work with, my life and career have not followed a traditional path. I earned my undergraduate degree from Princeton University and my law degree from the College of William & Mary, and spent 15 years practicing law before transitioning into mental health work because I wanted to help people in a more direct, human way. After spending time at home with my family and having close family members involved in the mental health system, I saw firsthand how meaningful and effective therapy can be. This experience led me back to school, where I earned my MSW from Simmons University. I have two years of clinical experience working at a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), where I supported adolescents and families during periods of significant emotional stress. Today, I work primarily with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, caregiving and parenting stress, relationship challenges, and feelings of overwhelm or being stuck. I also see some adolescents. I approach therapy as a collaborative, supportive process and strive to create a nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I specialize in helping young people (ages 10–21) better understand themselves, identify their needs, and build practical skills that support emotional well-being, confidence, and resilience. My work emphasizes addiction prevention and empowering youth to navigate life’s challenges with greater self-awareness and balance. Many of the young people I work with have been diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, or depression, and may struggle with self-esteem, peer relationships, or challenges at school and home. Together, we set meaningful treatment goals and work toward creating lasting, positive change in their daily lives. While much of my work focuses on youth, I also work with parents navigating the transitions of parenthood, supporting children with mental health or neurodevelopmental diagnoses (such as ADHD), and addressing the impact of trauma or substance use within the family system.

Hello! Let me start off by introducing who I am. I am a counselor who is passionate about helping people build meaningful, stable lives to be the best version of themselves. I see counseling as a shared journey: you are guiding the way, and I am holding the light to help us see the path more clearly. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients can explore who they are. I love exploring identity and helping you build a strong foundation. I have been told in the past that I have a more "laid-back" yet structured approach.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, and panic that often emerge during major life transitions—whether related to relationships, academics, career, or health. These changes can create financial stress, relationship strain, family conflict, or professional setbacks. I am committed to equipping clients with practical, effective tools to manage these challenges and move forward with confidence and clarity. My goal is to support you in building a purposeful, balanced, and fulfilling life. To enhance accessibility, I offer evening Telehealth sessions. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with holistic practices such as art therapy, mindfulness meditation, yoga, and journaling. Together, we will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. I strive to provide compassionate, supportive guidance while empowering you to unlock your inner strengths. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward healing and growth, I would be honored to work alongside you.

I am a student who also works in the field. I understand the stress that people can experience as they deal with their daily lives. We all experience stress and depression in different ways, and I hope to help my clients understand that they are not alone in the world and that focusing on positive ways to overcome these issues can help improve their lives and relationships.

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 Massachusetts. 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.

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 happens during the first therapy 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.
