Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Wellesley, MA

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) with a doctorate in psychology and extensive experience working with adults, college students, athletes, performing artists, and professionals. My clinical work focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, identity development, relationship concerns, stress management, and performance-related challenges. My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and strengths-based, drawing from evidence-based practices to meet each client's individual needs. I am fluent in Spanish and French, conversational in Portuguese, and strive to provide culturally responsive care to clients from diverse backgrounds. I am EMDR-trained and committed to creating an inclusive, affirming environment where clients can develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and confidence as they work toward meaningful and lasting change.

I believe that therapy works best when it feels like a genuine partnership built on trust, authenticity, and mutual respect. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and accepted while also feeling supported to challenge unhelpful patterns and create meaningful change. I value curiosity, honesty, and collaboration, and I tailor therapy to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Whether you're navigating a difficult transition, managing stress or anxiety, or seeking greater self-understanding, I'll meet you where you are and work alongside you at a pace that feels both supportive and growth-oriented.

Are you tired of carrying the weight of everything on your own? Ready to stop feeling stuck and start creating meaningful change? I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, family challenges, OCD, health-related stress, sexual identity exploration, seasonal affective disorder, work stress, and major life transitions. You deserve a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll uncover what's keeping you stuck, explore new perspectives, and develop practical strategies that help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.

Accepting new clients as of July 2026. Do you feel weighed down by life's challenges? You're not alone. I help young adults and adults better cope with anxiety (including chronic worry and social anxiety), depression, and substance use/addiction, as well as relationship issues, stress, low self-esteem, life transitions, and career challenges.

Your brain is always going, a constant loop of ideas, worries, and “shoulds.” You feel pulled in a million directions but can’t seem to start or finish the things that matter most. Deadlines sneak up, motivation comes in bursts, and overwhelm feels like your baseline. You might procrastinate until the last minute, avoid things that feel scary or hard, or overcommit to keep everyone happy, only to feel burned out and guilty later. Shame and self-criticism show up daily. More than anything, you want to quiet the mental noise, feel capable and calm, and stop beating yourself up.

I provide a proven mind-body integrated approach that helps adults heal from the impact of trauma, addiction, anxiety, interpersonal problems, self-hate, and more. I am a lifelong learner with vast training and experience in internal family systems (IFS), yoga, polyvagal theory, mindfulness, and self-compassion. I bring a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and open-minded to work with my people.

Welcome to my Headway profile! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who provides psychotherapy online to clients in Massachusetts. I have been practicing clinical social work for five years now. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD and anxiety and I have advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I’m a caring and nonjudgmental therapist who believes everyone deserves a safe space to be heard and supported. I work alongside my clients with compassion, helping them navigate challenges and discover what helps them feel their best. Nothing makes me happier than seeing people grow, heal, and reach their goals!!

I am at my best when I am a guide for others. I start by listening and developing understanding of who you are, what you value, and where you struggle. I will help you to find your way back to yourself and develop the trust you need in yourself to live your best life. I use an approach that is very collaborative offering tools and resources, but assisting you to choose your own direction.

We all struggle at times, especially in the way we live these days. I can help you understand how and why you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and develop strategies to move through this to a happier, more grounded, and more confident version of yourself.
