Grief counselors and therapists in Lawrence, MA

I believe meaningful change often begins with feeling deeply understood. I am deeply attentive to the hidden, stigmatized or exiled forms of emotion that leave people carrying their pain in isolation. In our work, I strive to cultivate a compassionate space where you can safely connect with and speak the truth of your emotional experience.

I bring curiosity, intuition, compassion, and humor into the therapy room. I won’t tell you who you should be or what your life should look like. Instead, I’ll help you understand yourself more deeply, recognize what may no longer be serving you, and identify changes that feel meaningful and authentic to you.

I especially enjoy working with women and with people navigating life transitions, relationships, identity, grief and loss, or a sense of feeling stuck. I’m particularly drawn to working with people who are ready to look inward, challenge old patterns, and create meaningful change in their lives.

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.

Stressed? Underappreciated? Lonely? Tired of being the little engine that could? The odd one out? You want to be understood and connect, but the words don't come out or cause more grief when they do. Whether its your job, your relationships, adulting, high school, college, parenting, or society at large, I'll walk with you toward "more better."

I'm a Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over ten years of experience supporting children, teens, and families across community health and pediatric hospital settings. Much of my work has centered on adolescents, youth involved in the justice system, families navigating multiple systems of care, perinatal mental health, and end-of-life work. I also hold a certification in perinatal mental health (PMH-C). Beyond direct clinical work, I've led program development and evaluation for initiatives serving LGBTQIA2S+ communities and Latinx and Indigenous youth. Before becoming a social worker, I worked as an Intervention Specialist, supporting middle and high school students with learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and significant mental health needs. Across all of this, one belief stays constant: you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you with respect, curiosity, and genuine care.
