Therapists in 02904
I’m here to walk with you through life’s ups and downs — to laugh, cry, and celebrate growth together. Therapy is a space to explore challenges, recognize your strengths, and make meaningful changes that stick. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand how our identities, relationships, and experiences are shaped by the world around us. I believe therapy is not only personal, but also political — a space to discuss systems that impact our mental health, reclaim our voices and build resilience in the face of inequity.

I believe that I am not much different from many of the clinicians working for GENNEW, providing outpatient therapy services. I like to work with clients from all different backgrounds. I believe that I work well with both anxiety and depression, but especially dealing with those who want to understand themselves better. The clients that will have the greatest benefit in working with me have an internal desire for change and are ready to do the work. This doesn't mean that I don't have patience, but I have found that those who come geared for change seem to attain it in less time.

I offer not only talk therapy, I integrate mind/body techniques that provide a deeper and longer lasting healing. Talk therapy alone does not always get the result you are looking for, but with this added modality of mind/body techniques the results can be profound. When dealing with issues such as trauma, anxiety and depression I have had the privilege to see results in my clients that range from good to astonishing.
