I am a dedicated therapist with over 17 years of experience helping individuals navigate the complexities of mental health and addiction. I specialize in supporting those struggling with anxiety, depression, and substance use.

I believe that many people underestimate how deeply their mental well-being impacts their overall quality of life. My goal is to build a relationship with you that honors your unique worldview while addressing the day-to-day stressors that hold you back. Whether you are dealing with inter-personal conflict, grief, or life transitions, I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can feel seen and heard.

I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. Along with my professional experience in community mental health and crisis-based work, I also bring lived experience that helps me connect with clients in a compassionate, authentic, and down-to-earth way. I understand how overwhelming life can feel when someone is navigating trauma, chronic stress, medical challenges, major life changes, or simply trying to keep everything together while struggling internally.

I have experience supporting adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional overwhelm, substance use concerns, and severe and persistent mental illness. I’m especially passionate about working with people impacted by difficult life experiences, medical trauma, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and emotional exhaustion.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel safe, comfortable, respected, and truly understood while working toward healing, growth, and a stronger connection with themselves.

I am a licensed counselor with 15 years of diverse clinical work experience with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. I specialize in complex family difficulties, cultural adaptation, mood disorders, psychosis and neurodevelopmental challenges.

You may notice patterns in relationships, emotions, or coping that feel difficult to understand or change. Often these patterns are shaped by past experiences, including trauma or attachment wounds. At times this may show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, feeling emotionally unsafe in relationships, or disconnection from yourself or those around you. You may also be navigating identity questions, cultural experiences, grief or life transitions. Therapy can offer a supportive and affirming space to understand these patterns, reduce anxiety, and build healthier relationships.

I am also a clinical associate professor at Brown University, where I teach and supervise clinicians in training. I work with individuals, couples, and veterans navigating relationship patterns, life transitions, and the impact of trauma.
