I'm happy to be a part of your journey to internal understanding, acceptance and growth. Many times we approach therapy from an overwhelming place. We may find ourselves repeating painful patterns that do not bring us enjoyment and satisfaction. My goal is to put you first while implementing evidence based practices, to guide you to reach your goals. Whether that looks like depression, anxiety, substance use, self-harm, suicidal ideations, family conflict, or something else; I am here to help.

I have years of experience working with children, young adults, their families, and support systems in a number of settings. I have had training and applied clinical practice in experiences and related diagnoses such as; Domestic & Intimate Partner Violence, Trauma, Substance Use Disorders/ Harm Reduction, LGBTQ+ community experiences, unhoused individual’s experiences, ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression. I have worked with clients to navigate systems and issues surrounding school, work, and building support systems.

I work with children, adolescents, young adults, parents, and families to help overcome a variety of stressors including anxiety, depression, impulse control and executive functioning issues like ADHD/language processing challenges, autism spectrum disorder, blended family struggles, academic challenges (from performance anxiety to IEPs and therapeutic schools), oppositional behaviors, and substance use. My clients describe me as warm, dedicated, and helpful. I tailor my approach to each client or family using an active-listening, strengths-based approach to build a trusting relationship and help clients identify and attain solutions that improve their functioning and relationships.

As a clinician, I aim to be a point of guidance, trust, and support for the communities and individuals who need it most. I work with individuals to help cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, self esteem, substance use, and more. I work with a wide range of clients, from adolescents to adults, to help them move through life's challenges with understanding, compassion, and the confidence they need.

I hope to provide a warm, non-judgmental and empathetic space for all the clients I work with.

All people at some point will find themselves stuck, unsure of the path they are on or the choices they are making, or hoping to improve the relationships they are having with themselves and others. Therapy can be a useful space to help people unlock the solutions within themselves and foster positive changes, personal agency, and sense of self-worth. I offer therapy that is rooted in principles of flexibility, responsivity, collaboration, and creativity. We will clarify and work towards goals of your choosing, such as concrete behavioral changes, accessing resources, deepening emotional understanding, or improving relationships.

Our behavioral health care practice offers services to all people including, low-income, migrant and refugee communities in the greater Boston Area and Springfield, Massachusetts. Our Focus is to provide a cost-effective, quality treatment to wide spectrum of society that may not have access to quality, comprehensive care. Our mission is to provide an opportunity for underserved children, young people, families, and individuals to promote and strengthen their mental, spiritual, and physical health.

The need to normalize therapeutic support, including all forms of mental illness, is ever-present today. Society does not always advocate for the individual nor does it provide freedom for the individual to advocate for themselves. Therapy can take many different forms, but it should always feel like a space to cultivate that relationship with self, discover a new kind of balance, and gain support through your experience.

I am licensed to practice in MA, NY, RI, and ME, and am available for virtual sessions. I use an integrative approach to psychotherapy, combining insight and skills-based frameworks. I help clients understand how their past experiences and relationships shaped and influence who they are now and how they experience the world (insight), and I help them develop tools for addressing current life situations and for putting that insight to work in moving their lives in the direction they want (skills-based). This approach helps clients link the past which formed them, the present they are living in, and the future they wish to experience.

We are all designed uniquely and live uniquely. Every person that we encounter is shaped by the interwoven threads of mind, body, and spirit as well as relationships, work, education, culture, community, and history. As such, Harbor Christian Counseling (HCC) seeks to care for the whole person through services that take into account this full range of formative influences. Caring for the whole person also means that we partner with our clients to address unwanted or problematic behaviors while gradually moving deeper to explore root issues that might be hampering growth.

I appreciate that people often feel blocked, unable to reach their goals or uncertain on how to live their ideal lives. I help my clients identify patterns, themes, and barriers that may be in their way, and then work collaboratively with them to move or shift these concepts so my clients can ultimately reach their goals.

I am a relational therapist and a psychoanalyst. I graduated from The General Training Program in Psychoanalysis at the Mass Institute for Psychoanalysis in 2019. After 30+ years of experience, I have found that each patient is unique and requires an individualized plan of treatment. My patients and I work together on creating a plan that addresses both the current problem(s), as well as the longer term goals. I strive to be flexible, open and creative in listening to and addressing patient's concerns. My style is warm and empathic and I incorporate humor into the work whenever possible.

With any and all presenting concerns, I provide a warm, non-judgmental environment. I have an integrative approach, with a particular focus on motivational enhancement, insight oriented exploration of past experiences, and when appropriate, specific tools and coping strategies. I use a number of research backed cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) protocols, which are proven to be effective in treating anxiety and depression. However, I am careful to use these methods in the context of a client centered and welcoming environment which accounts for an individual's particular needs, experiences, and readiness to change.
