I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience and a passion for helping individuals, children, and families overcome life’s challenges. I specialize in blended family issues, school difficulties, parent-child conflict, depression, anxiety, and trauma-related concerns. My approach is strength-based and family-centered, empowering clients to break ineffective patterns, make informed decisions, and develop healthier strategies to live more fulfilling lives.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University. I draw from evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and structured family therapy. My integrative approach supports emotional growth, resilience, and meaningful change for children and adults.
I am dedicated to advocacy and education, actively supporting children and families through IEPs, parenting support, and clinical panels with medical professionals. I emphasize the importance of mental and physical health and invite clients to partner with me in building stronger families and healthier lives. Schedule your first appointment today!
