About me

As a licensed therapist in Connecticut, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through life's most complex emotional challenges. My practice specializes in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and self-esteem.

I offer an empathetic approach that centers on understanding each person's unique journey. My expertise spans a wide range of focus areas, including supporting adults, navigating life transitions, addressing workplace stress, healing from trauma, and supporting those going through significant life stages and experiences.

My therapeutic style emphasizes creating a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, develop healthier coping strategies, and rediscover their inner strength. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression,
PTSD, relationship challenges, chronic pain, or seeking greater self-understanding, I'm committed to walking alongside you with genuine care and professional guidance.

I believe in the power of compassionate, personalized support to help you move toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
