I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner based in Massachusetts, and I've built my practice with a focus on making mental health care accessible. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and PTSD, and I bring a straightforward, caring approach to every session. I believe in taking things one step at a time, so you always feel comfortable with the process, and I stay open to whatever approach works best for you. I also work at a crisis center, which keeps me grounded in the realities of what people face when they need support most.

I have always known I wanted to be a therapist. From a young age I was empathic, patient, validating, comforting, flexible, and trustworthy. I believe that these were attributes that my friends and family seek me out for advice or to vent.
I studied psychology at Ithaca College and then worked for 4 years in foster care and group homes in NJ and NYC. Then, I moved to Boston and got my masters in mental health counseling at UMass Boston. Since graduating, I have worked in a wide variety of mental health environments; programs, schools, community based mental health, and virtual therapy platforms.
I am someone who is passionate about helping others and making everyone I meet feel heard, seen, and empowered.

Many of my clients come to me feeling like something is holding them back. Stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, struggling to communicate in ways that feel authentic, or searching for healthier ways to cope with life's challenges. They often describe a sense that their personal growth has stalled, even when they can't quite put their finger on why.
