About Me.

I'm a licensed psychologist with a deep commitment to helping people find their way through life's complex moments. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to embrace your unique journey. I specialize in four main areas that often intersect with significant life transitions:

​

  • Therapy for Mothers: Whether you're a new mom or a seasoned parent, I'll help you navigate the emotional complexities of motherhood.

  • Therapy for Pre-pregnancy, Pregnancy & Postpartum: If you're planning a family, currently pregnant, or adjusting to life with a newborn, I'll support you through the highs and lows.

  • Therapy for Anxiety: If anxiety is affecting your daily life, I offer strategies to manage stress and build resilience.

  • Career Counseling, Coaching & Assessment: For those seeking career guidance or facing a professional crossroads, I provide tailored support to help you define your goals and achieve them.

​

My background includes a doctorate in Counseling Psychology from Boston College, along with master's degrees in Mental Health Counseling from Boston College and Applied Sport Psychology from John F. Kennedy University. I've worked in a variety of clinical settings, from hospitals and community healthcare centers to schools and college mental health centers. This broad experience allows me to meet you wherever you are in your journey.

My Approach
In our work together, I aim to foster a sense of trust and openness. I use a range of therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, to create a customized plan that aligns with your goals. I believe in helping you embrace your emotions and work through them, rather than suppressing them, because that is the path to true healing and growth.

​

I also emphasize the importance of cultural and racial responsiveness in therapy, ensuring my practice is a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Additionally, I focus on skill-building and connecting you with resources to support your ongoing journey.
