Treatment is tailored to fit your needs and goals, drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities such as CBT, Psychodynamic, Family Systems, and Strengths based. With a background working in community mental health, privat...

“Therapy can be many things: a space for unpacking, for healing, for curiosity, for laughter, for saying things you’ve never said out loud. My goal is to co-create a space where you can bring your full self, including the parts still in process. I work with adults navigating questions of identity, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, race-based stress, relationship challenges, and that deep sense of “something needs to shift.” As a Black woman, I’m particularly drawn to working with those whose...

I'm a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with dual master's degrees in nursing from Norwich University and in mental health counseling from UMass Boston. My path into mental health care started with a deep interest in the stories people carry and the strength it takes to face life's hardest moments. Early in my career, I worked as a licensed mental health counselor, and that foundation continues to shape how I show up with patients today—with empathy, respect, and a genuine belief in...
In my 40 plus years as a psychotherapist, I've heard many times: "I want to be happy, to feel peaceful inside myself, but I can't seem to get there" or "I feel badly telling my friends and family. I worry they get tired of listening to me." There are many reasons people feel stuck in their anxiety, depression, or relationship problems, and feel immobilized by them. Understanding what is causing problems can help you feel less stuck and immobilized, more at peace, and more self-confident. Psycho...
