About me

Are you having issues that make you feel out of control, discouraged, and unable to make important decisions in your life? I am here to support and empower you with everyday life's challenges. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Addictions Counselor in Massachusetts with over 20 years of counseling experience. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, traumatic events, issues with chronic illness, parenting issues, and substance use.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach to treatment depends on the issues brought to the therapy session. Therapy is hard work and needs commitment. I'll guide you to make the most out of your therapy session. Treatment modalities I utilize are: are Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I am certified to treat children and adolescents with anxiety disorders. Together we can work on a treatment plan to address issues in therapy.

You have taken the first step to learn more about yourself and facilitate change. If you are ready to take that step, let me invite you to schedule a first-time appointment.

I'm looking forward to working with you.
