Introduction

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in private practice in Hanover, MA, and I work with adults navigating everything from everyday stress to deeper struggles like anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. I believe healing happens in relationship—in a space where you feel truly heard and accepted for who you are. My approach draws from relational, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches, and I integrate CBT, DBT skills, and psychoeducation as they fit your needs. I'm particularly attuned to identity work, perinatal mental health, and the intersections of culture, race, and lived experience that shape our wellbeing. Whether you're processing a life transition, working through relationship conflict, or healing from past pain, I meet you with warmth, empathy, and genuine respect for your unique story. I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions and accept BlueCross and BlueShield insurance. I'm currently accepting new clients and would welcome the chance to work with you. I believe the most important contributor to meaningful and impactful therapy is building a solid foundational therapeutic relationship. I aim to create a nonjudgmental environment where clients can feel safe and empowered to address personal problems and emotional symptoms, and explore toxic relationships and unhelpful behavior patterns. I like to help clients find the good in themselves. My hope is for my clients to feel lighter at the end of each session. I’d be honored support you in your journey
