As a licensed professional counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to goals, growth, and stability. For eleven years I was a school counselor which highlighted the growing mental health needs. So, the past three years I have shifted my focus to private practice to help clients ages 8-40. Seeking help is one of the hardest parts in your journey, so congratulations on taking that first step and prioritizing your mental health!

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Farmington, CT


You've been holding it together for everyone else. Let's make space for you.

You're self-aware enough to know something is wrong, and exhausted from trying to figure it out on your own. Maybe you've done therapy before. Maybe you've read the books, know the language, can explain your patterns — and still can't seem to change them. That gap between knowing and feeling is exactly where I work.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and the relational wounds that don't heal with insight alone. My clients are often thoughtful, capable, hard-working women who are harder on themselves than they'd ever be on anyone else — carrying old hurt in their bodies long after their minds have tried to move on.

My approach is warm and direct. I won't just nod and reflect — I'll work actively with you, using EMDR, somatic and parts-based (IFS-informed) methods, and nervous system tools drawn from yoga therapy and mindfulness. These aren't techniques I layer on top of talk therapy — they're how I understand healing: that your body has been part of the story all along, and it needs to be part of the recovery too.

I've been doing this work for over 18 years, and I bring my whole self to it — including my own experience navigating complex relationships, multiple roles, and the ongoing practice of self-compassion that I ask of my clients.

If you're ready to stop managing and start actually shifting — I'd love to connect.

If you're navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, or any of the many things that can weigh on you, you deserve a clinician who takes your history seriously and works with you — not around you. That's what I aim to be. I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 25 years of experience treating adolescents (12+) and adults, and I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Whether medication is part of the picture or not, my goal is to help you understand what's going on and find a path forward that fits your life.
