I am currently accepting new clients. Reaching out for support is a courageous first step and a powerful sign of your commitment to feeling better. Navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, OCD, or other concerns is hard, and you don’t have to do it alone. As a clinical psychotherapist, I’m dedicated to helping individuals move through life’s challenges in a compassionate, non-judgmental environment. I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions. My experience spans private practice and acute inpatient care at Yale NH Psychiatric Hospital, where I’ve supported adults at every stage of life.
I recognize that therapy should be as unique as you are. That’s why I tailor each session to your specific needs, drawing on evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Together, we’ll tap into your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Everyone faces challenges, and I’m here to guide you with empathy and expertise. I invite you to come as you are, ready to explore, reflect, and actively participate in your journey toward greater well-being. We'll create a safe space where you can express yourself freely and feel empowered. The next step in your path to healing and growth starts here.
