Wait list for late afternoons/evenings. Hi! I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) in Washington, Oregon, and Massachusetts. I have over 20 years of experience in mental health and social work. I can help you navigate the emotional journey towards well-being and personal growth. You may have felt like a "black sheep"- different from others, neurodivergent, unconventional, outside the norm, quirky, on the edge, or even a bit rebellious. Or you may have followed a more direct route in the past, and now find yourself dealing with the twists and turns of life transitions. I’m here to help guide you on your unique path.
I use trauma-informed, evidence-based techniques, like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps empower you to identify and modify unhelpful thought patterns. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), existential-humanistic therapy, and narrative therapy are other approaches I integrate.
I have a passion for healing, and helping you improve well-being. I want to provide a safe and compassionate space for you to explore your challenges, uncover your strengths, and work towards meaningful change. I have a warm and conversational approach- I am definitely not a "blank slate" therapist! Let's take the next steps towards a brighter future.

As a neurodivergent therapist, an area of interest is the "tricky triad" of ADHD, anxiety, and mood symptoms. This combination creates many challenges, affecting all aspects of life, including relationships, work, school, and overall well-being. With the right support and strategies, it's possible to manage these struggles and create a meaningful life. I have certificates in CBT-I and ADHD-CCSP.
