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 Boston, MA
Searching for couples therapists in Boston starts with finding someone trained to work with both partners and the relationship itself. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Some therapists have specific couples training, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy. You may also look for licensed marriage and family therapists, since their training focuses on relationships and family systems.
In a large metro area like Boston, the number of options can make the search harder to narrow. Location may matter if you want in-person sessions near Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Cambridge, or another neighborhood with easy transit access. Virtual appointments can also make scheduling simpler when two calendars need to align. As you compare therapists, check availability, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist works with couples and whether their style fits what both partners want from care.
Couples therapy in Boston can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who work with couples and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your location and plan. You can compare profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
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.
