Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Vermont

I have worked in a variety of settings, from in-patient to community mental health. I have worked with all age ranges. I am enthusiastic about helping people discover their inner strength and create their road map to what success is to them personally!

Healing isn't about forgetting the past. It's about changing the way it affects your present. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorder recovery, or difficult life transitions, therapy can help you better understand the patterns that have been keeping you stuck while creating healthier ways to move forward.

With nearly a decade of experience working with adults, I provide a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment. My goal is to help you make sense of what's contributing to your current challenges, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, eating disorders, grief, ADHD, or relationship concerns, we'll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself.

Therapy is a collaborative journey of self discovery and integration. Its aim is wholeness. I draw on a variety of therapeutic frameworks (EMDR, DBT, motivational interviewing, strengths based work) to meet individuals where they are at and help them identify strengths and areas of growth in their life.

Together we look at how thoughts, feelings and beliefs intersect with our life transitions and relational patterns and how they contribute to our sense of well being, or misalignment. By uncovering the needs under our feelings, we learn to take personal responsibility for expressing ourselves accurately and authentically, allowing us to feel heard, valued and understood.

If you're looking for an out of the ordinary therapist, welcome to my "office"! I was born and raised in Springfield Massachusetts before moving to east Tennessee in 2011 and then northeast Vermont in 2021. So I understand "transplant loneliness" quite well in addition to other city to rural living dilemmas. I have a wide array of lived experience in addition to my education and am able to bring it all to the table to better assist you on your journey. I am only human and I do not know more about you than you, but we can work together to find the solutions to the issues that trouble you. I am here to dig out the answers you seek from within. Side note: I have experience with various types of relationships within the internet/gaming/pop culture/geek/nerd/neurodiverse/LGBTQ/spiritual and alternative communities as well cultural diversity.

I've been in practice for thirty years, working with clients of all ages. I have Master's Degrees in Counseling and Religious Studies, with concentrations in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, EMDR and Expressive Therapies.

I’m a licensed therapist with more than 20 years of experience in behavioral health. I trained at Goddard College, earned my doctorate in public health from Tulane University, and am licensed to practice in both Maine and Vermont.

I work with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges. My approach is grounded in an existential perspective, which means I help clients explore questions of meaning, identity, connection, and how their environments shape their wellbeing. I believe that even healthy people can become symptomatic in unhealthy environments, and I work collaboratively with clients to better understand their experiences, build insight, and move toward lives that feel more authentic and sustainable.

My goal is to offer a thoughtful, supportive space where clients can reflect, heal, and make meaningful change.

If anxiety has been calling the shots in your life — keeping you from doing things you love, making you second-guess yourself, or trapping you in a cycle of "what ifs" — you've come to the right place.

I'm an anxiety specialist, and I've dedicated my practice to helping people just like you take their life back from anxiety, phobias, OCD, and intrusive thoughts. I know how exhausting it is to feel like your own mind is working against you. The good news? It doesn't have to stay that way. You are not your anxiety, and with the right tools, you don't have to let it make your decisions anymore.

I genuinely love this work. There's nothing more rewarding than watching someone realize they have more power over their anxiety than they ever thought possible — and I'd love the chance to help you experience that too.

Sometimes you know something in your life isn’t working, but you’re not quite sure how to change it. Maybe you’re overwhelmed, stuck in the same relationship patterns, struggling with anxiety, or realizing that experiences from your past are still showing up in your life today. I believe our patterns often make sense when we understand where they came from. Together, we can get curious about what’s underneath the anxiety, reactions, or behaviors that are keeping you stuck, while also building practical tools to help you move forward.

Looking for guidance to work through trauma? Feeling stuck in your relationship? Wondering about your life’s purpose? You’re not alone. We all face challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need support to find self-awareness and compassion—both essential to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like IFS and EMDR, I help support emotional and mental health goals. I believe we all have the innate ability to feel, heal, discover, and live a more uplifting life. All it takes to begin is the willingness to take that first step and trust the process.
