My Approach to Helping
I believe in a collaborative approach between therapist and client, combining psychoeducation, skill building, empathy, and humor to empower you to reach your therapeutic goals. I have experience working with ages ranging from adolescents to older adults, with my current focus being on early adulthood. I have extensive experience working with individuals experiencing dual diagnosis and substance use, as well as depression, anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, and life transitions.
I utilize a humanistic and client-centered approach to promote trust and comfort within my sessions. I utilize therapeutic modalities including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Harm Reduction. I encourage client feedback to assess what you are finding helpful within sessions, and tailor my approach to fit your needs.
I strive to build a therapeutic relationship in which you feel heard, supported, and comfortable. I am available to see new clients with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), United Behavioral Health (UBH), Tufts, Harvard Pilgrim, Aetna, or self-pay. I offer free 10-15 minute phone consultations to discuss your goals, areas of needs, and see if you feel we would be a good fit! I can be contacted via email, phone, or website. Thank you!
