Welcome! I am an associate clinical social worker. I earned two B.A.s in psychology and women’s studies from Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. I went on to achieve my master’s in clinical social work from Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts.

My style is warm, down-to-earth, and creative. I try to do my best to provide a welcoming and safe environment for my patients to express themselves.

Is your life in balance?
I believe that by the time many people come to therapy they have tried a lot of different things to feel better and change what is creating discomfort and pain and yet life is still out of balance. Many years of experience have taught me that the combination of psychological insight and behavioral change are necessary to

Therapy can be common sense, practical and direct?
