Hi there, welcome. It is wonderful to see you are taking the first step to connect with a therapist. Please note I am temporarily on hold for in person appointments. Telehealth only. My style is casual, and client centered. Clients set their own goals as I support them in feeling heard, safe and an equal part of the therapy process. Our focus is to identify areas of difficulty, build on the strengths they already have, identify triggers and learn coping strategies to help ease symptoms that may be impacting day to day life. I believe in the importance of meeting people where they are, and providing non judgmental, open connections.

I specialize in supporting caregivers, adults and seniors experiencing anxiety, grief, family conflict and/or chronic illness. To support those with busy schedules or mobility difficulties, I offer convenient in home therapy on the North Shore. Telehealth sessions are also available. This service is temporarily not available.
If you are interested in learning more, you're welcome to reach out anytime. I accept BCBS insurance and offer very generous private payment rates which are based on sliding scale. I understand paying privately is difficult and welcome transparent discussion around your private payment rate. Take care, be well and reach out anytime.
