I offer collaborative, compassionate, culturally-informed, evidenced-based care tailored to you in Massachusetts and Minnesota. Whether you're navigating life transitions, feeling overwhelmed by emotions, or seeking self-understanding, I help you build on your strengths to achieve your therapy goals. I work with young adults, adults, medical professionals, parents, and couples through a range of concerns. I believe therapy can be valuable not only in difficult times but also a space for growth. I aim to create an environment where you can express yourself and feel heard, with the goal of helping you do the things you care about.
I listen to your needs and adapt evidence-based treatments for concerns like anxiety, depression, pregnancy/postpartum mental health, work/college stress, relationship/family conflicts, grief, PTSD, and insomnia. Specialized training and emphasis on the relationship enable me to tailor my approach to best meet individual needs and goals in therapy.
My life experiences give me a deep appreciation for the range of emotions we carry. I emphasize the therapeutic relationship, listening closely and believing that a genuine connection is essential for growth. Finding the right therapist can take time, visit my website and reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we're a good fit.
