My hope for my clients is to empower them to reach their goals. That looks different for everyone. We know that anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, relationship as well as work stressors can negatively impact us and prevent us from having the life we truly deserve and want. Oftentimes, in order to move forward, we need to look back and see why certain things have impacted us and continue to impact us. My approach starts with reviewing goals and determining how best to move forward. Sometimes that means short-term solution focused therapy. Other times, it's cognitive behavioral and narrative therapy along with MI.

I am a therapist in Massachusetts specializing in work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and substance use. Clients can expect a strengths-based approach with a clinician who understands that rapport is the foundation of progress in therapy. I am extensively trained in grief work and cognitive behavioral therapy.

Please call me or send me an email to set up a free phone consultation so we can discuss how I may be able to help you reach your goals. I look forward to hearing from you.

When working with me, the initial focus is always on building a positive therapeutic rapport. We will spend the first few sessions exploring the historical information that has led to seeking treatment and we'll complete the requisite paperwork. There are opportunities to ask questions to ensure that we both feel that I could be a good fit to assist you in reaching your goals.

I typically utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients explore the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and how to focus on the things that are within their control. Clients often benefit from reframing negative thoughts and differentiating between thoughts and facts.
