Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in a season of transition? Whether you're navigating big life changes, burnout, or the weight of self-doubt, therapy can be a powerful space to reconnect with your inner self and begin healing from the inside out.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and trauma-informed yoga teacher with over 20 years of experience helping women, adolescents, and families create balance, strengthen relationships, and build emotional resilience. I offer a calm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your story, clarify your goals, and work through challenges with the support of a seasoned guide.
My approach is collaborative and integrative, blending traditional talk therapy with somatic tools like mindfulness and yoga when helpful. I tailor treatment to each individual, drawing from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths-based approaches, trauma-informed care, and nervous system regulation strategies to manage symptoms.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling from Central Connecticut State University, a Post-Master’s Certificate in Clinical Issues in Adoption from the University of Connecticut. I’m also a member of the American Counseling Association and the Connecticut Counseling Association.
Let’s work together to help you feel more grounded, clear, and whole.
