I'm licensed as an LICSW and an LADC, and I offer an open‑minded, accepting approach to psychotherapy, often using humor when it helps. I earned my MSW in 2009 from Smith College, including graduate internships at UVM Medical Center’s inpatient psych unit and the VA in White River Junction. I have practiced in Vermont for nearly 20 years, and I've gained great experience working with people with a range of concerns. This includes community mental health clients, trauma survivors, individuals in recovery, veterans, elders and incarcerated people.
It’s a privilege to work with individuals, couples, and families, and I strive to create a comfortable, affirming space for everyone I meet with. This necessarily involves helping clients feel seen, accepted and at ease. As a dually licensed clinician, I support emotional, relational, and substance‑use challenges with warmth and humor.
My broad experience helps me meet people without judgment and to always bring curiosity, compassion, and respect to their sessions.
You don’t have to navigate everything alone. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, I’m here to offer a space where you can feel comfortable and supported. When you’re ready, please reach out.
