As a member of the community, I cultivate an environment that is safe and welcoming for those identifying as LGBTQ+. I support those dealing with more severe psychological conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, self harm, personality disorders, and trauma. I also have interest and commitment to helping my clients navigate the unique challenges associated with young adulthood which include the commonly experienced issues of identity exploration, relationship growth, learning to thrive in academic environments, achieving success with vocational pursuits, and establishing independence.

Therapy is an act of strength, hope, and resiliency. Even the happiest and most well-adjusted people may encounter problems resulting from unexpected life challenges and demands. My goal is to work in collaboration and partnership with my clients to bring about positive changes, growth, and healing from past painful events. I have 15 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist. I received both my Master's degree and Continued Advanced Graduate Study Degree in Counseling Psychology from Cambridge College. I am also certified as a cognitive behavioral therapist from Boston University School of Social Work.

Forming a positive and interpersonal therapeutic relationship with each patient is fundamental to developing effective coping skills, fostering a deeper self-knowledge, and ultimately achieving a sustainable whole-self. It is of great importance to me, that the person seeking my services comes to believe in themselves and in their own potential for achieving wholeness, healing and strength. I utilize empathetic, supportive language and other therapeutic methods to enhance and actualize treatment success. I have been working effectively with patients for more than 15 years, creating a warm and naturally therapeutic environment.

Is the stress of work and family life becoming difficult to manage? Do you struggle to find meaning in your life? Are you working to understand competing aspects of your identity? It is my privilege to help my clients work through their personal struggles, using a psychodynamic approach that is both relational and existential. I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client provides an empowering, life-affirming space to work through life's struggles and to bring about healing.

In my practice, by face to face sessions or by using online Telehealth confidential therapy, I work with clients to feel comfortable and to form a bond, based on trust, that will foster a relaxed positive therapeutic interaction. It is important to me that, from the very first session, the client can communicate his or her story and feels heard, so that I can understand the presenting issues, communicate hope, and formulate mutually agreeable goals to achieve in our work together.
