I have worked with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma, and relationship challenges. My counseling style is genuine and validating. I am passionate about building therapeutic rapport with individuals to help them identify strengths as they work towards achieving personal goals.

My approach to treatment combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I am intentional about educating individuals about the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and highlighting the power of thoughts and self-talk. I am a Christian and I enjoy utilizing scripture to help individuals achieve wellness that will lead to greatness. I have experience with implementing bible plans in treatment to help individuals address depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and purpose. I created a Christian mental wellness journal titled, Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts. The journal teaches the skills of utilizing scripture and taking thoughts captive to control and manage thinking patterns. The journal introduces a technique called prayerful thoughts. Prayerful thoughts are thoughts rooted in scripture. The journal encourages the reader to challenge unhealthy thoughts with scripture and replace unhealthy thoughts with prayerful thoughts.

I live in Massachusetts and have counseled many in schools, hospitals, clinics and private offices over the years.

I strongly believe that we have within us what we need to heal ourselves from the emotional pain experienced in pasts and presents, and grow as we become our better selves. I also believe that change comes from the power of the therapeutic alliance: working together to improve your life and circumstances, as much as my skills and your innate strengths.

Over the past seven years, I have worked in crisis mental health settings, supporting individuals through some of their most challenging moments.

I work with adults who feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, people-pleasing, relationship stress or life transitions and want practical tools to shift these behaviors.

I help clients move beyond insight to meaningful change by building practical skills to navigate anxiety, difficult emotions and relationship challenges. I integrate ACT, DBT, EMDR and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients respond more flexibly to difficult thoughts, regulate emotions, strengthen relationships and build lives guided by their values. If you're feeling stuck, mentally overloaded or caught in repeating patterns, therapy can help you better understand what's happening and develop new ways of responding. My work is practical and collaborative, with a focus on emotional regulation, effective communication and building skills that help you navigate life's challenges more effectively.
