I do my best work with adolescents and adults. My experience spans over 30 years. I focus on each person's strengths and provide support by bolstering their resilience and courage. Together we move toward change and greater health.

As a LMHC and Art Therapist, my work is rooted in the belief that creative expression can be a powerful pathway to healing, insight, and personal growth. My use of art therapy offers a unique way to explore thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Through the creative process you can safely examine experiences, reduce stress, and access deeper self-understanding. No artistic skill or background is needed the focus is on expression, not perfection.

I have worked with many different populations and people struggling with a variety of concerns. I am particularly interested in working with adults and adolescents experiencing ADHD, depression/mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, grief and loss, and adjustment to life transitions.

I earned a Master of social work from Simmons School of Social Work and I am licensed in Massachusetts as an independent clinical social worker.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing medication

management and therapy for children ages 5+, adolescents, and adults. I treat ADHD,

depression, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, and related conditions. I also work with adults with autism

spectrum disorder and ADHD, providing diagnostic clarification and ongoing treatment within

general psychiatric care. I offer in-person and telehealth visits and focus on collaborative,

evidence-based, and individualized care.

I grew up in MA. I earned a 2nd-degree black belt from Premier Martial Arts. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from UML. I worked at a group home for teenagers, then one for adult men with schizophrenia. I worked as a support and then a lead teacher at a day program for adults with developmental disabilities. There, I learned a lot about Behaviorism and ABA. I was then able to work as a clinician as I finished my graduate degree.

I earned my graduate degree at Fitchburg State University. I did my internship at the Community Health Center in Fitchburg. I worked in community mental health before venturing out on my own.

I specialize in EMDR for complex trauma and solution-focused short-term therapy. I am willing to share personal and HIPAA-compliant info if it is relevant to your recovery. I chose this specialty because it has worked for me! Let me show you how you can take back control of your mental health.

I love my job! I have supported children and families for over 30 years using a strengths based and trauma based model.

I specialize in working with children, parents, adolescents, and adults using a strengths-based approach that combines cognitive therapy theory, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy.

I work to provide a supportive and empowering environment where clients can explore challenges, build resilience, and develop effective strategies for overcoming obstacles. I tailor therapeutic interventions to meet the specific needs and goals of each individual and family.

Hello and welcome! Do you feel stuck - maybe in a difficult relationship with someone important or in a complicated relationship with yourself? My aim is to help you begin healing as quickly as possible, even when the issues are long-standing. Together, we will explore the present and seek out transformational processes, rather than focus on the past or simply relive old wounds as a more traditional approach might.

I get so excited to watch clients learn more about themselves, build self confidence and grow as individuals. The transformations I have witnessed in the people I have worked with over the years is amazing and awe inspiring. Emotional pain can be incredibly difficult to deal with, especially on one’s own. Ultimately, we all deserve to feel better about ourselves and learn to care for ourselves in a more kind and accepting way.

Hello, and welcome! To start, I want you to know I provide a no-fee 15 minute initial consultation session for prospective clients, because I believe a good fit is essential to effective counseling. This first meeting should allow you to determine that. I am a seasoned therapist with experience across three decades of supporting individuals, families, and groups. The core of my success has always been my ability to help people to efficiently and effectively achieve their goals. I look forward to meeting you.
