- With 30 years of experience in behavioral health, I am an LICSW licensed in MA, CT, and RI. I hold a Master's Degree from Columbia University. My expertise includes providing evidence-based treatment and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy to adults and couples.
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.
Want to make the most of your life, but something keeps getting in the way?
I work with thoughtful, high-energy adults who feel held back by patterns they can’t seem to break—whether that’s anxiety, addiction, trauma, self-criticism, relationship difficulties, depression, or persistent overthinking. Stop letting your lizard brain run the show.
Together, we’ll identify the emotional and behavioral patterns that no longer serve you, understand where they came from, and develop practical ways to move forward. My goal is not simply symptom reduction, but helping you create a life that feels meaningful, connected, and fully your own.
I am a therapist that has a passion for helping others break free from burdens. I believe our deepest secrets can be blockages to moving forward in life. My mission with every client is to create a space where they feel safe to be authentic, while learning ways to regain control of their lives. I am honored to support you in this journey you are getting ready to embark on and I am rooting for your success in the healing process. I am sending you well wishes and a safe space to chat.
I am a down-to-earth, approachable therapist with over a decade of experience supporting teenagers, young adults, and their families. Many clients arrive hesitant about therapy but quickly find a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where they can talk about anything. I strive to be responsive to each person’s life experiences, including gender- and race-based toxic stress and trauma. I completed my training at Boston University and spent several years working with a multidisciplinary team at a safety-net hospital.
Come and start your journey towards a better life. I will help you develop resilience and strengthen your inner core. I will work with you to develop problem solving skills, and learn effective communication skills. I am an empathetic listener with over 10 years of experience in this field.
Hello and welcome to therapy. You are one step closer on your journey to achieving your goals, passions, and intentions. You and I will develop a therapeutic relationship as you work through trauma, anxiety, depression, and other areas that you would like growth in. You will utilize the strengths that you already have, and keep expanding on those. It is my job to create a safe, open, and person-centered environment. I look forward to working with you on your healing journey! Keep going and growing.
I do Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Therapy. I currently facilitate a Bereavement Group which meets at my Brookline office every Saturday from 2-4pm. I also run groups for substance abuse, depression and anxiety. In addition, I have a lot of experience counseling children of all ages. I am a firm believer in strength-based psychotherapy.
Available this week for new patients! Thank you for being here and taking this important step toward your well-being. I know reaching out can feel daunting, and you are not alone on this journey. I will help you navigate it in a way that is motivating and freeing. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut with six years of experience supporting individuals on their mental health journeys. I believe mental well-being touches every part of life, and I bring curiosity, warmth, and an open mind to each session. I look forward to supporting you on your path forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Bedford
Searching for therapists in New Bedford starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist is trained for it. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare New Bedford therapists, review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience. A therapist who works with your specific concern, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy, may be a stronger fit for what you want to address.
New Bedford is a smaller city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger Massachusetts markets. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Massachusetts. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect before you book.
Therapy in New Bedford can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you find therapists in New Bedford, MA who match your needs and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details — so you can review bios, compare availability, confirm coverage for your specific plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
