About Me:

  • My clients describe me as:

    A therapist who focuses on your strengths, works with you as a team, listens attentively, and understands that adjusting to life transitions is hard.

  • Something to know about my approach is:

    I will validate your thoughts and feelings as they help me determine which interventions are best for you. I believe you are the expert in your life, but I will also provide you with the guidance, tools, and resources you need to achieve your goals.

  • Together, we will:

    Focus on your strengths and who you are, as I believe we are influenced by our past, the significant people in our lives, our place of study/work, and our communities. We will discuss the ups and downs of life, and focus on your personal growth.

  • I specialize in working with people who:

    Are experiencing anticipatory grief or grief due to the loss of a loved one. I also work with couples and individual clients who are experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, or depression or are going through a difficult life transition.

  • I became a therapist because:

    I wanted to use the unique, difficult life experiences I have been through to help others in return. Helping others find their way brings me joy.

  • Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

    I'm conveniently located in Central Connecticut right off 84, there is parking in the rear of the building, and it is wheelchair accessible.

  • More about me and my practice:

    As I treat each case individually, I leave it up to you to determine whether you want telehealth sessions, in-office sessions, or a combination of both. I do not take insurance at this time but I offer a sliding fee scale.
