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.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, we'll explore how to challenge those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
