Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Massachusetts

Hi! I'm so glad you're here.

I have almost 10 years of experience in the field of mental health in both outpatient and community based settings caring for both individuals and families with a diverse spectrum of needs and backgrounds.

I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Bridgewater State, and my Masters in Social Work from Boston University.

My experience has been in outpatient agencies, school based, community based clinical roles.

I specialize in trauma, PTSD, and perinatal mental health — and I hold particular expertise working with military service members, veterans, and people navigating pregnancy loss, infertility, postpartum depression, and postpartum anxiety. I understand military culture in a way that's hard to put into words, and I take it seriously. I also know firsthand what early motherhood can feel like — the disorientation, the grief that shows up alongside joy, the way it can surface things you thought you'd already dealt with. Having my own child gave me a different kind of understanding of this work, and it informs how I show up for clients going through it. I use evidence-based approaches — including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), CBT, and ACT — because you deserve more than good listening. You deserve treatment that has a track record of actually working.

I am caring person who uses a open and compassionate approach in helping you to better understand your own needs. I use a skill building style that will build your relationships with others and provide you with interpersonal effectiveness to use in all of your important connections.

I have over twenty years of experience with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship issues and parenting, among other issues. In particular, I have worked with loneliness, burnout, social anxiety, and self esteem.

My education is from Binghamton University, Boston College, and Northeastern University. Fully licensed in NY and MA, I have additional specialized training in trauma informed care, DBT, grief, and anxiety.

My primary areas of experience are trauma and addiction, and I have a deep passion for helping people heal from experiences that have impacted the way they see themselves, their relationships, and their lives. I understand that coping strategies often develop for a reason. Rather than judging those behaviors, I want to help you understand what they have been trying to do for you, while working together to develop healthier ways of moving forward.

I don’t see you as a diagnosis, a collection of symptoms, or a list of things that need to be fixed. I see you as a whole person with a story. Your experiences matter, your feelings matter, and you deserve a space where they can be heard.

Therapy can be uncomfortable at times. Healing often asks us to look at things we’d rather avoid. But you shouldn’t have to do that while feeling judged, criticized, or alone. My goal is to create a therapeutic relationship where you can laugh, cry, be angry, feel confused, ask difficult questions, or simply sit with whatever you’re experiencing—and know that you are still accepted.

You don’t have to be “better” before you come to therapy. You don’t have to hide the messy parts. You can come exactly as you are.

If you’re looking for a therapist who will genuinely listen, meet you with compassion, and walk alongside you through the process of healing, I would be honored to take that journey with you.

I think this version captures something especially important about your philosophy: the relationship itself is part of the treatment. It also avoids making you sound like you’re promising to “fix” someone, while still conveying genuine passion for helping people heal.

I graduated with a Masters degree from Northcentral University with the degree of Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been working with individuals, adults, and couples. Helping people get from point A to B and see the transforming impact in their lives is what drives me to be a therapist. I love to see people become aware of their own strength and power and rise from their challenges.
