We all encounter moments in our lives that test our capacity to cope and cause us to feel ungrounded or overwhelmed. Whether you are struggling with issues of depression, anxiety, intimacy/relationship concerns, family struggles, life transitions, or simply feel like you need a space to talk through the things weighing heavily on your mind and heart, I intend to create a safe and supportive environment to explore the issues impacting you. I offer a calm, authentic, compassionate style and use an eclectic, active, relational approach grounded in psychodynamic training. My goal is to understand the full scope of who you are -- your strengths and your struggles, and to use my skills and training to collaboratively build the insight and tools necessary to address the issues you are facing. I truly feel honored to participate in my clients' journeys in this capacity. I received my Masters in Social Work from Smith College’s School for Social Work and my B.A. from Skidmore College. I have worked in human services for over fourteen years in a variety of settings including group private practice, college mental health, community mental health clinics, various high schools and middle schools throughout the greater Boston area, a substance use/abuse treatment center, and an inpatient psychiatric unit. Additionally, I hold a specialized certificate in Maternal Mental Health from Postpartum Support International and the 2020 Mom Project. I have extensive experience working with adults, college students, and adolescents. Additionally, I welcome clients struggling with gender/sexuality, infertility/pregnancy/post-partum issues and adjustments to parenthood. My pronouns are she/her. If my background seems like a potential fit for your needs, please reach out.
