Newport, RI 02840
I work with individual adults and teenagers who are going through a difficult time in their lives. Most often they are experiencing some kind of stressful event, such as difficulty in a relationship or work/school related problems, some form of loss, or simply general dissatisfaction in their lives. Many have some degree of anxiety or depression and find therapy a helpful means of managing these feelings. Over the years I have also worked with many survivors of sexual abuse, people coping with cancer, MS, ALS, and 9/11 first responders and veterans who were coping with trauma, loss and PTSD.

Bristol, RI 02809 (Online Only)
When we change the way we think, we change the way we live. Perspective is key. I believe counseling is a space to explore the thoughts that hinder success and then transform them! Reshape the way we’ve learned to communicate with ourselves and with others. I am passionate about helping people develop new beliefs about themselves that support their values. What do you value? What are you currently doing that aligns with your values? What’s getting in the way? How do you overcome all of that? We live in a fast-paced society but counseling allows us to slow down, reflect, and figure out how to achieve our goals.
