I will be out of the office until August 18, 2026. I will respond to new client inquiries the week I return. Embracing your true, authentic self can feel both daunting and transformative. My therapeutic approach is rooted in fostering genuine connections, a strong sense of self, and empowerment. I aim to create a supportive space where you can gain deeper self-awareness, experience growth, and cultivate lasting change. You are the expert in your own life, and together we will navigate this path to reconnect with the life that’s been waiting for you.
My strengths include helping you break free from trauma, explore and own your sexuality, EMDR, cultivate empowerment, set healthy boundaries, embrace vulnerability, and support parents in navigating the challenges of parenting while breaking generational cycles.
I provide clinical supervision for pre-licensed therapists working toward licensure. Together, we’ll focus on honing your skills, discovering your unique therapeutic style, and navigating ethical considerations. I am a board-approved supervisor in the state of New Hampshire.
