Life can sometimes feel heavy, confusing, or simply different than you expected. There are moments when we feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or unsure of what comes next. Therapy can offer a place to pause, breathe, and feel supported without judgment.

I believe you deserve a space where you can be yourself, tell your story, and feel genuinely heard. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I meet you where you are and work alongside you to better understand what you're experiencing, build on the strengths you already have, and find ways to move forward.

Whether you are working through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to walk through it alone.

In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.

We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.

Your brain is a physical organ — and like any organ, it can heal, and change. Your struggles aren't character flaws; they're brain biology, and our brains can heal and grow.

I offer neuroscience-based psychiatric care via telehealth throughout Connecticut, drawing on 27 years across the state's healthcare landscape — ICUs, ERs, home visits, schools, and communities. Awareness is the first step in healing.
