I see my role as creating a safe space a where you can explore what it means to be you. Within the therapeutic alliance, built on trust and safety, I will listen to your joys, fears, and pain with empathy and compassion, and offer you tools to thrive.
I am a licensed mental health counselor, and in recent years, my practice has evolved to focus on the issues of depression, anxiety, and trauma. I treat clients of all ages, but my special interest in working with individuals in highly stressful work\school environments.
I hold dual board certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and an Adult Nurse Practitioner. I have extensive experience as an Adult Nurse Practitioner which offers an in-depth understanding of the relationship between medical and psychiatric illnesses. I provide medication management for mental health conditions. I do not provide therapy only.
Life can be hard, and everyone needs help sometimes. In fact, humans are by nature collaborative. It can be difficult to see all the possibilities when your mood or hurts from your past are getting in the way.
As a licensed mental health clinician, I utilize a combination of evidence-based interventions and genuine compassion, empathy, and belief in growth through the therapy process. My background is in cognitive behavioral therapy, with training in dialectical behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I have experience working with teenagers and adults of all ages in addressing struggles related to anxiety, depression, addiction, grief & loss, life transitions, and trauma.
We are working together to help you on your journey. I am openminded, direct and creative in my approach. When appropriate I use humor. I am an observer by nature and curious about my clients and their journey
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been providing therapeutic services to youth, parents, and adults for over 30 years. Treatment settings include psychiatric hospitals, residential programs, schools, and community outpatient treatment centers. I received my Master of Science degree in Counseling from Fitchburg State University and earned a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study in Expressive Therapies from Lesley University. Currently, I am only working with adults.
A bit about my educational journey: Upon Graduating from High School in Oregon, I headed East. I earned my Bachelors Degree in Communication Studies from Emerson College in Boston where I minored in Psychology. My Masters in Clinical Mental Health came years later from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA.
I get so excited to watch clients learn more about themselves, build self confidence and grow as individuals. The transformations I have witnessed in the people I have worked with over the years is amazing and awe inspiring. Emotional pain can be incredibly difficult to deal with, especially on one’s own. Ultimately, we all deserve to feel better about ourselves and learn to care for ourselves in a more kind and accepting way.
In a world where there is endless advice, online "experts" and seemingly easy fixes, it can be challenging to hit a roadblock and find that nothing feels quite right. Whether it is depression, anxiety, or just a general sense that something is “off”, it keeps you stuck. And you just can't figure out how to fix it. While I have no answers, I offer a place to pause, reflect, and talk about what’s been holding you back. And most importantly, what you want to happen next.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chelmsford
Finding therapists in Chelmsford starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or stress. As you compare Chelmsford therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller community like Chelmsford, local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Massachusetts while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to see you. When comparing therapists in Chelmsford, MA, consider availability, whether they are accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what concerns they often support, and what to expect from sessions.
Therapy in Chelmsford 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 easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, confirm coverage for your specific plan and location, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
