I am and LICSW and C-DBT and have been working with children, adolescents, families, and adults for over fifteen years. I received my BA with high honors in Psychology from Clark University and subsequently my MSW from Boston College. I have experience working in community based settings, outpatient clinics, schools, crisis situations, and individuals in state hospital levels of care.
Collaborative therapeutic relationships are the essence of providing the environment for you to feel comfortable and make the progress you and/or your loved ones deserve. I strive to make goals into realities through sessions which may evoke strong emotions while also building on your confidence and strengths.. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I love being able to creatively establish rapport and make sessions productive and also therapeutically fun such that we can make progress together. I utilize a blend of play and art therapy, DBT and CBT modalities as well as skills from motivational interviewing and narrative therapy. I believe in the work I do and keeping individuals and families safe within their own communities. I look forward to hearing from you and helping work on your journey together!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
