I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, graduated from Simmons University (located in Boston). I have years working as a therapist, and my people (clients) have often told me that I have found ways to connect without judging them. I am humble, have a sense of humor, and help you validate self. Mental Health care is the work that you put into your healthiness, and I am with you along the way on your journey. I believe that you are not meant to manage the hard stuff alone, and that it starts with teamwork.

You may be functioning well on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unable to slow down.

You may be the person others depend on while quietly feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. At Milton’s Place Counseling, therapy offers a supportive space to slow down, process what you are carrying, and identify practical next steps. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and major life transitions. You do not have to wait until you are in crisis to seek support.

If anxiety, depression, grief, or ongoing stress are making daily life feel harder, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with adolescents, adults, and families who feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Many parents seek support when they notice changes in their teen’s mood, behavior, school functioning, or communication, while adults often come to therapy feeling exhausted, disconnected, or weighed down by life transitions and relationship stress.
