- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health counselor, licensed in Massachusetts, with 4 years experience working with adults, adolescents, and children. Through my work I have supported clients in navigating life’s stressors, anxiety, depression, family conflict, self-esteem, motivation and beyond. I collaborate with my clients to create an open and honest space, where they can feel safe to share and grow. My style incorporates a collaborative strength-based approach with components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered practice, while keeping in mind individual experience and specific goals. Taking the first step to seeking therapy can feel uncomfortable and is very brave! I am here to support you in that process and help to make this a positive and personable experience for you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
