I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and I earned my M.A. from Lesley University. I have been working as a full-time mental health counselor since 2019, and I have worked with clients of all ages along the way. In addition to offering EMDR therapy, I am also a registered dance/movement therapist and love to explore mind-body connections and somatic symptoms with clients on their path to healing. My therapeutic toolbox also includes CBT, DBT, acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing and expressive arts therapies. I am also an endorsed practitioner of Rainbow Dance, a therapeutic movement and music program for children and their caregivers that enhances self-esteem, self-regulation and social empathy. I am also proudly a neurodiversity affirming therapist. It is my goal that every client feels welcomed in my sessions just how they are, and my intent is to create a therapeutic space where clients feel comfortable to be authentically and unapologetically them. Our brains all process information differently, and I think that’s just wonderful!

I graduated from New England College with my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. While pursuing my degree I was able to work with folks diagnosed with severe persistent mental illness, co-occurring disorders, and substance use disorders. I interned with an intensive outpatient program for addictions, and co-occurring disorders where I utilized my skills motivational interviewing (MI), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am now utilizing EMDR and found that this modality of therapy can be very impactful to all areas of mental health needs. I enjoy working with young adults, and adults. It is important for me to build great relationships with my clients and make them feel secure when discussing difficult things. I want my clients to feel that they can be open and transparent with me, as well as being unapologetically themselves. I am excited to meet with you and look forward to supporting you in your journey.
