I am dedicated to helping individuals through therapy, essential for self-exploration and addressing challenges like anxiety and depression. I hold a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Suffolk University and a Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University. My focus is on anxiety and depression, using a strengths-based approach influenced by DBT. Together, we’ll create a safe environment to build resilience and promote well-being. I use evidence-based practices and a collaborative approach to empower my clients. Let’s take the first steps toward your healing journey together.
At Giesken Counseling Services our therapists focus on their main areas of expertise. My ideal client is someone ready to tackle life challenges head-on, seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and how to achieve their goals. They strive to balance emotion and logic. If you're ready to navigate your journey and achieve personal growth, I'm here to help.
Our experienced team will help you get started. Contact us today, and we will work with you to get fit with the right therapist to fit your needs. We look forward to working with you!

I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression or Bipolar Disorder. During our initial session I will gather more information from you to get a clear picture of what your goals for therapy are. We will then establish therapy goals together. Most of my clients experience a gradual decrease in symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
