You give so much to others, but when it comes to your own needs, you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure where to turn. Whether you’re navigating relationship conflict, major life transitions, or the weight of past trauma, you don’t have to do it alone. I help adults and couples break free from cycles of self-doubt, anxiety, and emotional disconnection using evidence-based therapies like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in attachment, helping clients reconnect with themselves and the people who matter most. I specialize in three areas: couples therapy—rebuilding trust and emotional safety; perinatal and family transitions—supporting new parents, blended families, and co-parents; and trauma—using EMDR and DBT.

I love helping adults shift narratives rooted in trauma and shame to ones of resilience and self-compassion. Trauma and anxiety often strip us of trust in ourselves; I work closely with clients to help them rebuild that trust and security. I offer in-person and remote sessions in MA and sees clients virtually in Vermont and Florida.

My approach is affirming yet challenging. I view relational growth as a pathway to emotional, cognitive, and physical wellness. In sessions, I typically combine skills training and process-oriented interventions and focus on shifting the negative beliefs that perpetuate shame and disconnection.

Trauma and anxiety often strip us of essential trust in ourselves; I work closely with clients to create greater self-trust and security in body, mind and spirit. I love helping adolescent females and adult women to befriend their bodies, and to shift narratives embedded in trauma and shame to narratives of resilience and self-compassion.
