Alone. It's how so many of us feel inside. You may be unseen by others for who you really are, be unmotivated or anxious about the future, be suffering through loss or illness, or be stuck in relationships or situations that aren't working. We struggle through, surviving but not thriving, caught up in a limiting narrative about our lives, coping in ways that help us feel safe but often leave us tired and isolated. It's tempting to stay in survival mode and just "get through it," hoping circumstances might change, when you can't see another way.

My clients would describe me as direct, caring, humorous, action and solution focused. I help individuals and couples overcome all aspects of life, specializing in anxiety, depression, relationship, work conflict & stress related issues. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies - an evidence-based form of therapy that focuses on the thoughts and perceptions that contribute to negative outcomes and experiences. Treatment would focus on identifying issues and skill development so that you can feel and perform better.

**FULL CASELOAD**My approach is to identify the clients' therapeutic needs with compassion.

I have a history working with adults, children, couples and families. I enjoy working with a diverse population. Change is inevitable in life however how one moves through it is up to the individual. Behavior is changeable but only by the person that has the behavior not by his/her partner, parent, friend etc.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Rhode Island with over 20 years of experience treating individuals and families, with specialties in adult, and child and adolescent therapy. Additionally, I enjoy working with parents of children of all ages around the challenges of parenting. I treat a range of conditions including trauma, grief and loss, depression, panic and anxiety, and ADHD. I also work with families to help improve problem solving and communication skills, as well as teach you skills to deepen family connections and get through stressful times .

PLEASE NOTE as of 10/20/20 Unable to accept new clients . I practice with the core belief that every client possesses answers within themselves to address and resolve their issues or difficulties. Many times those answers or truths are not clearly visible to the person due to factors such as unhealthy/familiar patterns, addictions/compulsions, mood/anxiety disorders just to name a few. It is therefore my job as the therapist to help clients not only overcome these factors to discover their truths but also to put these new patterns and truths into action. Once achieved the client can access a more balanced and satisfying life.

Here you will find a safe space, one which is collaborative and authentic. I have a warm, outgoing approach that is direct, interactive, and empathetic. My empowering approach includes finding new insights and practical strategies, increasing effectiveness, self-worth, and satisfaction. I welcome you, with your unique challenges, and unique gifts. I tailor my sessions to the individual, drawing from different therapeutic models. I believe in strengths, hope, honesty, and building a meaningful life.

My ideal client is a family or couple in the midst of a situational crisis. They may need help navigating changes such as: a member with special needs, adolescent years, an affair, remarriage/stepfamily issues, illness and death. I strongly believe many people have the capacity to manage life's challenges, however they may need to learn more skillful communication of their needs and desires. It has been my privilege to help restore innate strengths as well as to nurture untapped abilities to overcome stresses and symptoms of depression, anxiety and confusion associated with these life changes.

She has extensive knowledge of school systems & special education services.

Everyone has a story to tell, a thread that consciously or unconsciously guides his or her behavior, wants, and motivations. In my practice, I try to help people who have become unhappy with their current pattern of living and have begun to think about building a clearer understanding of who they are and who they feel they would like to "be." I work to build a mutual appreciation for each other's story. Having received extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral and Analytical Theory, I am able to provide an eclectic approach to working with a wide variety of clients' needs.

The ideal client is the person who is willing to stay open in addressing whatever it is that does not feel right in his or her life. Asking for help is a sign of strength.
