From a heartfelt place, I mirror back each person's beauty and potential. With intention, attention, skill and humor, I facilitate the process that allows each person to become more of her/his authentic self and to manifest that self into the world.

Difficult emotions are a part of being human. But when anxiety, depression, or painful relationships begin to feel overwhelming, it can be hard to find your way forward. Psychotherapy offers a supportive space to feel more grounded, build self-confidence, and begin to heal from the inside out. For over 30 years, I’ve been dedicated to helping people reduce anxiety, strengthen self-esteem, and navigate life’s challenges with more clarity and resilience. My approach blends psychodynamic therapy with insights from neuroscience, helping clients understand how emotional experiences are shaped by both psychological and biological factors. Together, we work toward tools and strategies that help regulate emotions—even those that feel unbearable. In both individual and couples therapy, I offer a collaborative, nonjudgmental space where you can speak openly and feel truly heard. I work with adults of all sexual orientations and identities, and I bring special expertise in supporting LGBTQ+ clients. In couples therapy, I welcome people in traditional marriages, open relationships, and polyamorous partnerships. Please visit my website to learn more about me and the way that I work. We can also have a ten-minute chat to see if I'm the right fit for you.

Everyone experiences distressing or overwhelming challenges at different points in life. Many people struggle to manage these inevitable difficulties, get stuck and then subsequently feel defined by their emotional pain. This can negatively impact relationships, ambitions, work and self-worth. I believe in people’s inherent right to live meaningful and joyful lives and in their ability to choose how to respond to life’s challenges. I support my clients through their courageous process of self-exploration and self-compassion. My therapeutic approach involves treating people as a whole: mind, body & spirit. This allows people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves, and with the support of an authentic and collaborative therapeutic relationship, my clients are able to make the changes they want. My areas of specialty include trauma, addictions, depression and anxiety disorders. I am EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) trained. EMDR is recognized as a highly effective trauma treatment and allows people to heal from emotional pain that has stemmed from distressing life experiences. “Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional” H.M.

Through The Trees Therapy currently has openings for clients both in person and telehealth, contact us today! At Through The Trees Therapy we believe that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses and sometimes we just need the help and guidance of someone else to help us uncover what they are and help us navigate what they mean. I am passionate about working with children and adolescents to help them unlock potential and see how making changes could help them manage stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I am also passionate about working with young adults and adults to identify areas of their life where they may need to make changes in patterns and other ways of thinking that they may have never thought of before. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, and I use this in conjunction with other types of therapy to tailor treatment to each individual. I help people look at how their thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are linked and to look for ways to make adjustments in these to reduce distress. I am also certified in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy. My clients describe me as kind, understanding, and non-judgmental. I know taking the first step to reach out to a therapist can be a difficult one, but my hope is that together we can collaboratively create a space for you to feel empowered and in control of your life again. Feel free to contact me for scheduling!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (MHC) based in Acton, Massachusetts, working with children, teens, and adults who struggle to manage their emotions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by anger, frustration, confusion, sadness, or loneliness. Despite their best efforts, they often feel as though their emotions are controlling them rather than the other way around. Low self-esteem, anxiety, and difficulty connecting with others can lead to feelings of isolation. My goal is to help clients deepen their understanding of themselves and their emotions while learning practical techniques to manage distress and regain a sense of balance. My therapeutic approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic principles. With teenagers and adults, I focus on helping clients build tangible skills in emotional regulation, such as challenging unhelpful thoughts, reducing self-criticism, and practicing grounding and mindfulness strategies. For younger clients, I use play-based therapy to provide a safe, expressive environment that fosters emotional awareness and growth. I encourage all clients to recognize their unique strengths and inherent resilience, fostering greater self-confidence as they navigate daily life. Each session is tailored to the individual’s needs, personality, and preferences, ensuring that therapy feels engaging, relevant, and effective.
