If anxiety, stress, a health challenge, or a life change is taking up more space than you want it to, we can talk through what is happening and what support may help. I work with adults and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, family or relationship concerns, chronic and other physical health conditions, grief or loss, trauma, and life transitions. I also work with concerns related to ADHD, bipolar disorder, substance use, identity, women’s issues, and end-of-life care. My background includes clinical social work in a medical setting, supporting people through complex diagnoses and significant life stressors. I earned my MSW at Simmons College and am a Massachusetts LICSW.

I'm a licensed psychotherapist who works with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and/or neurodivergent adults who have spent a lot of time trying to understand themselves, but still feel stuck in painful patterns. You may already know where your struggles come from, yet find that insight alone hasn't brought the relief, self-compassion, or change you're hoping for. I've been a therapist for 5 years, and my training in internal family systems (IFS) therapy and somatic approaches has helped clients move beyond insight, experience relief in the body, and feel more whole and connected to themselves, others, and the world around them.

My philosophy is very Jungian-based. I offer a masculine perspective to help those in learning about how to help relate to themselves better and then offer better relationships with others. My work is centered on the truth that when we see reality we are set free. The matrix keeps you stuck and enslaved. My mission is to help people free themselves so they can connect to their true nature and feel more fulfilled. I use health, nature, sexuality, and spirit to help others.
