Are you or your child navigating difficult behavior, past trauma, or the feeling of being overwhelmed by life experiences? I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and families in Massachusetts who are overcoming traumatic experiences and behavioral difficulties. My goal is to create a compassionate, affirming space where you or your child can feel empowered, explore complex life experiences, and begin the journey toward greater emotional well-being and personal growth. I see you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.
Beyond my work with youth and families, I am particularly passionate about supporting women through unique life challenges—including work/life balance, family relationships, fertility struggles, pregnancy, and postpartum transitions. I have extensive experience addressing self-esteem, communication, stress, and finding life purpose.
The first step toward change takes courage, and I'm here to meet you where you are. My practice is centered on a collaborative treatment plan, ensuring our time together supports your whole person and your specific goals. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LICSW) ready to partner with you. Reach out today to schedule a consultation.
