I am an LMHC who specializes in disability, chronic pain, trauma, grief, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I graduated from Suffolk University with an Masters of Science in mental health counseling.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience. I have a Doctorate in Social Work. I have focused primarily on working with children, adolescents, and their families throughout my career. For me, therapy is a collaborative process and we will work together to accomplish your goals. Anything is possible, sometimes we just need help to get things jump-started.
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or life experiences that have left them feeling disconnected from themselves or uncertain about how to move forward. I believe that healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and accepted. I am passionate about helping clients recognize their strengths, reconnect with their authentic selves, and build lives that feel more grounded, meaningful, and aligned with who they are.
I earned my Master's degree from Springfield College in 2007 and bring nearly two decades of clinical experience across a wide range of settings, including outpatient clinics, in-home therapy, residential treatment, juvenile justice programs, school-based services, and as a school adjustment counselor. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how trauma, relationships, and life experiences shape emotional well-being across the lifespan. While my background includes extensive work with children, adolescents, and families, my practice is primarily focused on supporting teens and adults who are navigating life's challenges. I am committed to providing culturally responsive, affirming care that honors each person's unique identity and lived experience.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Drug & Alcohol Counselor with 8 years of experience working with adults. I specialize in substance use disorders, crisis intervention, suicidal ideation, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and personality disorders — areas I approach with both clinical rigor and genuine compassion. I work exclusively through telehealth, which means you can connect with me from wherever you feel most at ease. My practice is intentionally small, so I can give each person the focused time and attention they deserve. I come to this work having seen the real impact that burnout, stigma, and lack of support can have — and I believe everyone deserves care that meets them where they are.
100% virtual telehealth counseling provided! Currently accepting clients who are physically located in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Arizona, or Oregon. (I am unable to see clients residing in Virginia at this time. If you’re located in one of the other states, I welcome the chance to work with you.)
I work with adults who have noticed their use of substances becoming disruptive to their life. They want to change their patterns and habits before other areas are affected. My approach is practical and evidence-based. Understanding that changing habits can be deeply challenging, I provide a safe, straightforward place where sustainable habits can be built, without judgment.

I also accept Medicare, AmBetter, UMR and United plans.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Concord
Searching for therapists in Concord starts with finding someone whose background matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that connect to your needs. A therapist’s bio can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Concord is a smaller market, so the right local fit may depend on both location and appointment format. In-office therapists near you may work well if you prefer meeting in a physical space, while virtual sessions can expand your options across Massachusetts. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Concord can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you search for Concord therapists who match your preferences, review detailed bios, check insurance coverage, and see your estimated cost before booking. From there, you can compare therapists, choose a time that works for you, and book directly when you’re ready.
