About My Clients

I'm so glad you're here and thinking about taking a chance on yourself! You may have been questioning whether therapy is right for you and I'm here to tell you, that is completely normal. I work with a lot of individuals who are trying therapy for the first time. Many people come to therapy to address feelings of anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, or anger. And many people stick around to figure out more about themselves and to work on creating a life that is worth living to them.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has been in the field since 2018. I graduated from the University of Connecticut in 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and then went on to obtain a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Saint Joseph. I have worked in a variety of counseling settings and with diverse populations. I have experience with children, families, and adults from 18-70+ working in client's homes, in the agency setting and within the private practice setting. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) though I use various modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered, Strengths-based, and Mindfulness-based approaches while always using a trauma-informed lens. I collaborate with each person to find an approach that works best for them.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that every person is doing the best they can, including you. I witness so many amazing people approaching themselves with a hyper-critical eye. As a recovering perfectionist myself, I have lived in the suffering of self-doubt and Imposter Syndrome. And so, I have made it my mission to support my clients in learning how to treat themselves with self-compassion. If you're ready to set yourself free from the constraints of negative self-talk, please reach out by call/text/email-whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
