Thank you for taking a moment to check out my therapy profile. Thank you also for taking the first step towards healing. This process is about you and helping you live life as optimally as possible. I am a LICSW ( Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) in both Vermont and Massachusetts.
Since 2015, I have been practicing independently, but I have been in the social work field since 2007.
The better part of my career was spent in public schools as a school social worker. I have in-depth knowledge of the IEP/504 Process, in addition to the struggles and frustrations of each process. Professionally, as a former educator, I have experienced firsthand the struggles and joys of public education. As a Volunteer Firefighter, who is Pro Board Certified, I have a unique connection to being a first responder in today's World. Most importantly, as an empathetic social worker with a sense of humor, I want to make therapy comfortable and accessible to everyone.
At this time, I provide individual sessions, couples therapy, and family therapy via tele-health. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. The areas of mental health that I specialize in are: Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Women's Health, First Responder Care, and Life Changes. If you are a team player looking for a teammate to work with you, I am your therapist! We will explore the goals you want to accomplish and develop a game plan to make them possible.

I work with people from all walks of life who are ready to look inward, explore patterns, and make meaningful change. Together, we’ll address your goals—whether that’s managing symptoms, improving relationships, or finding a greater sense of purpose and peace. I believe therapy works best when it’s grounded in trust, curiosity, and collaboration. Because diagnoses are never one-size-fits-all, I approach mental health as a specific set of experiences in a complex world. I show up as my genuine self to show that therapy can truly be for anyone. I’m ready to work together to make your life feel like a place you want to be.
My journey stems from my own story of resilience in the face of hardships. I became a therapist because I have always wanted to help people through some of their darkest hours. Being exposed to some dark hours myself, I know that it is difficult to do it alone. When you have someone to confide in, assist you through the hard times, and just let you know that you are not alone, makes a difference.
My therapeutic approach includes CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, Relational Therapy, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, SFT, EFT, IFS, and just speaking like a human being. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space where you can feel safe, seen, and supported. My approach is relational and personalized—we'll explore your story together, build coping tools, and move toward healing with curiosity, courage, and care.
Therapy with me is real, down-to-earth, and never boring. I mix honesty, humor, and heart to make the process comfortable. I help adults manage emotions, build confidence, and tackle life's challenges with tools that work. Think of it as a safe space to be yourself, grow, and maybe laugh along the way.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Arlington, MA
Searching for couples therapists in Arlington starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. As you compare Arlington couples therapy options, look for a therapist with specific couples training. Licensed marriage and family therapists, as well as therapists trained in approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy, may be a strong fit for relationship-focused care.
In a smaller market like Arlington, finding one therapist who works for both partners can take added coordination. Virtual couples therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still giving you access to Arlington therapists who fit your schedule and preferences. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether the session format works for both partners. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they structure couples sessions, which relationship concerns they focus on, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to assess fit.
Counseling in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who offer couples therapy, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready. You can browse profiles, check availability, and look for a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new clients.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
