I received my Bachelor's and Master's Degrees at Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts, both in Social Work. My primary focus and passion for the last 10+ years has been in serving those navigating the health care system, mental health and aging, caregivers to aging loved ones with various conditions, support and management of neurocognitive disorders, and standing with people and their loved ones as they cope with end of life issues. I approach my work, not just as a professional, but as a daughter, sister, friend, mother, and partner. I strongly believe that as important as it is to acknowledge the challenges of life, effective treatment planning must include your humanity and who you are as a person. As authored by Gordon B. Hinckley "The happiest people I know are those who lose themselves in the service of others." The joy of my career is being able to empathically and compassionately serve my patients.
