Acton, MA 01720
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in private practice with over a decade of experience working with adolescents and their families in their homes and in the community. In addition to working with adolescents and their family's I see young adults ages 18-45 virtually and I provide supervision to therapists.
I connect well with those who "don't like therapy" and have struggled to connect or engage with other therapists in the past. This happens for lots of reasons–but one major one is that sometimes sitting in an office staring at one another just feels too threatening. MetroWest and Somerville areas)

I am an experienced, caring and active therapist committed to helping people move towards change. Creating a trusting and safe relationship is a crucial first step and I aim to develop a comfortable and positive rapport. I have a lot of skills and effective approaches and will create an individualized treatment plan to best address your issues. I work with adults and teenagers with a variety of problems. Some of my work is short-term, targeting specific symptoms such as headaches or anxiety. Other clients benefit from more on-going exploration to address such problems as relationship difficulties or self-esteem issues.

I offer a safe, compassionate space where we can slow down together, explore what you’re carrying, and find clarity, relief in the process.

I accept most major health insurance because I believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health services. Using a holistic approach integrating cognitive behavioral therapy with a focus on the brain body connection, I provide a safe space for you to share, reflect, and learn. If you are feeling anxious, depressed, or facing challenges in your life, we will work together to help you first recognize, then change, negative patterns of thinking and reacting to triggers. You will learn coping strategies that enable you to view yourself through a new and gentler lens and find happiness in the simple joys of daily living.

I believe we all have a deep need to be heard, valued and understood. When those needs aren't met, we often find ourselves reacting in ways that, once being used as a means of protection and survival, now may be causing stress or distance in our relationships. Through understanding and acceptance, you can move forward, free from the barriers that keep you stuck. Together, we can find new ways of responding that bring you closer to the life and relationships you truly want.

You have been in therapy before. You have made progress, but something still feels stuck- a pattern you can see clearly and still cannot stop. Maybe it shows up in relationships you can't sustain, an anxiety or depression that doesn't lessen, a complicated relationship with food or in the way old experiences keep resurfacing in your life. This kind of stuckness isn't a sign that therapy will not work for you. It is often a sign that what you have tried has not gone deep enough.

Making the choice to seek out therapy can be a tough decision and transition, but it doesn't necessarily need to be hard.

Therapy is a space where you should feel seen, understood, and heard. I emphasize that traditional talk therapy isn't right for everyone and incorporate different styles of therapy into each session. I would be thrilled to work with you!

Creativity & Compassion, Mindful Awareness, Health & Resiliency. These are the principles behind my psychotherapy work with women and the groups I facilitate in the community.
Every person brings a unique story to treatment, stories that might involve a new diagnosis, living with pain from a chronic condition, the strain of a relationship, the long journey of reproductive health and loss, postpartum adjustment, sexuality, conflicts at home or at work, the death of a loved one, transitions in midlife, caring for an aging parent.

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.”- Brene Brown. Many of us experience moments that challenge our thoughts, emotions and spirit. These experiences may cause us to bury emotions which often present in unhealthy behaviors, most times outside of our awareness. I aim to hold a compassionate space with you, to nurture vulnerable parts and to foster healing.

From the outside, you may seem like you’re managing, perhaps even thriving. But internally, something feels off: a persistent sense of anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or a mind that doesn’t easily quiet. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling tense, or stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense but continue to repeat. I specialize in helping people work through anxiety and the lasting impact of difficult past experiences so they can feel more at ease and more fully themselves. Our work will focus not only on what you’re experiencing now, but on understanding the deeper patterns that shape how you think, feel, and relate.
