No issue is too big or too small. I am here to listen and support you on your journey. We will work in a nonjudgmental environment where we can focus on your goals and move at your pace. We will work to improve symptoms and gain a better understanding of ourselves. My aim is to help individuals, couples, and families learn new skills to help enhance their overall wellbeing. The therapeutic process is a wonderful opportunity for us to grow. I have relocated back to Rhode Island after a lengthy foray in NYC. There is always time to discuss sci-fi novels and hockey games - most importantly I am here to help you.
