Don’t just treat symptoms—but listen for the story behind them.

Integration of medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial threads into a coherent and dignified plan.

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience as a psychotherapist and career counselor. I have worked with clients with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, adjusting to college life and career challenges. I also have experience counseling clients with medical illnesses including Long Covid. My therapy style has been described as warm and engaging; I believe in creating a safe space with respect, compassion and open dialogue necessary to building trust.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Adult Gerontology Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in diagnosing and treating mental health as well as medical conditions across the lifespan. I earned my graduate degree in psychiatric nursing and have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, giving me a broad perspective on mental health care. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and ADHD. I work with adults and adolescents, and I’m experienced in supporting individuals navigating different mental health conditions.

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 20 years of nursing experience, complemented by specialized education and clinical expertise in psychiatry and psychopharmacology. I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where every patient is treated with dignity, respect, and empathy.

My approach is collaborative and patient-centered, empowering individuals to actively participate in their mental health journey. I work closely with each patient to develop personalized treatment plans that may include medication management, psychotherapy, lifestyle modifications, and complementary approaches such as nutrition, exercise, and other evidence-based interventions. My goal is to help patients build resilience, improve their overall well-being, and achieve lasting, meaningful improvements in their mental health and quality of life.

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.

I believe that healing happens through genuine connection. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients feel heard, understood, and accepted. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, life transitions, relationship challenges, and low self-esteem.

My goal is to meet you where you are. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, we’ll work together to better understand your experiences, build on your strengths, and move toward the life you want to create. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, empowering, and tailored to your unique needs.
