I offer Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy to individuals seeking a deeper understanding of self. I help people build skills to overcome anxiety, depression and emotional overwhelm. I offer training in mindfulness, which emphasizes the importance of presence and curiosity in the healing process.

I have deep empathy and insight into exploring life’s deepest questions. Clients gain confidence and a sense of improved well-being by coming to understand themselves in a comfortable therapeutic setting. I work with diverse populations and clients beginning at young adulthood.

I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. My approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centered, and I believe you are the expert on your own life. Together, we will explore your challenges, build practical coping skills, and work toward goals that are meaningful to you. I strive to provide unconditional positive regard and support you at a pace that feels comfortable and empowering.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes that mental health care should be compassionate, individualized, and centered around the whole person. I work with individuals across the lifespan who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and other mental health challenges.

I believe that seeking mental health care is a sign of strength, not weakness. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable being honest about what they are experiencing. I recognize that every person’s story is different, and I take the time to understand the individual behind the diagnosis.

I have a decade of experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds, various age groups, and mental health conditions. I have worked in elementary schools, community mental health, PHP, group and private practice, and conducting crisis assessments at hospitals and in other community settings. My current work focuses on providing support to adults in the workforce, oftentimes struggling with adjustment issues (e.g. new employment, college, workplace struggles, family/relationship issues, etc.) which typically show up as symptoms of anxiety and depression.

I have worked in several clinical and therapeutic settings including working in private practice for several years, and having had the unique opportunity to work with underprivileged folks in a correctional setting both in an individual therapy and group therapy capacity. These unique experiences have given me the opportunity to work across a variety of settings and acquire a multidisciplinary approach for individuals with unique and specific needs.

You might look like you have it together—but inside, your mind doesn’t slow down. You overthink conversations, second-guess decisions, and feel constant pressure to stay “on” at school, work, or in relationships. When things finally get quiet, your brain doesn’t—it gets louder. I work with adolescents and young adults who are tired of feeling stuck in that cycle. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally overwhelmed, anxious, or mentally exhausted. They don’t just want to “talk about feelings”—they want real tools that actually help.

I have experience working in community-based mental health and primary school settings. I've been a clinician since 2023 and have experience working with individuals of all ages. I am especially interested in working with those with chronic health conditions, mood disorders and trauma.

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor/ Licensed Mental Health Counselor since 2016. I am a PMH-C certified in perinatal mental health through PSI Postpartum Support International. I am a Tier 1 Star Behavioral Health Provider, supporting our military and their families. I have experience supporting children, teens and adults with concerns such as anxiety and depression. I have my undergraduate and graduate degrees in psychology. I am licensed in both Massachusetts and Virginia. I am open to working with individuals ages 16 and older.

I believe that therapy can have a great impact on one's life. If one is motivated, one can resolve problems, feel better, and address past hardships. I have over thirty years of experience helping clients achieve their goals in a supportive and safe environment. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I received my undergraduate degree from Stanford University and my Masters of Social Work from Columbia University. I have resided in both the United States and Latin America. I look forward to working with each and every client, in order that they may reach their happiest self possible.
