Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker
I am a clinician at our Beverly clinic who provides therapy services!
My ideal client may be someone experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, anger, or chronic stress that feels unmanageable. They’re navigating significant changes—divorce, job loss, moving, new parenthood, or empty nesting. Conflict with partners, family, or coworkers is affecting their mental well-being or self-esteem. They notice recurring patterns in behavior, thoughts, or relationships that are causing distress but feel stuck. They struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, or a lack of direction and meaning in life.
They’re seeking insight into their emotions, behaviors, and relationships—how things connect and why they feel the way they do. They want practical strategies for managing emotions, handling triggers, and communicating more effectively. They need help moving from just “surviving” to “thriving”—becoming more self-aware, grounded, and confident.
In short, the ideal client is someone open to reflection, ready (or willing) to grow, and tired of carrying their pain alone. They don’t necessarily need to have all the answers—they just need to be willing to show up and explore.
As a therapist, my priority is creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I specialize in building deep trust and emotional safety—because I believe meaningful healing can only happen when you don’t feel judged, rushed, or dismissed.
My approach is rooted in empathy and a deep respect for the unique context of your life—your culture, relationships, past experiences, and the systems you move through. I don’t just look at “what’s wrong”; I look at why it makes sense that you feel or respond the way you do.
Together, we work to gently unpack what’s been heavy or overwhelming. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a space where you can slow down, reflect, and reconnect with your sense of self—at your own pace.
I want you to know that you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin therapy. You don’t need to have the “right” words or a clear goal. Showing up as you are—tired, unsure, overwhelmed, or even skeptical—is more than enough.
I deeply respect the courage it takes to ask for support, especially if you’ve been carrying things on your own for a long time. My role isn’t to fix you, because I don’t believe you’re broken. I’m here to listen closely, to help you feel less alone, and to work with you to make sense of what you’re going through in a way that honors your unique story.
In our work together, I’ll offer warmth, honesty, and presence. I care about helping you feel safe enough to explore things that might feel hard to say out loud. Healing doesn’t always look dramatic—it can be quiet, subtle, and deeply personal. And it begins by simply reaching out.
If you’re feeling curious, uncertain, or ready to start, I invite you to connect with me. Let’s see if it feels like a good fit.
