Clinical Menta Health Counselor

I ama  clinician at our Somerville clinic who provides therapy services!

I work best with individuals navigating mood, trauma, and anxiety-related challenges, including depression, PTSD, generalized anxiety, OCD, and perfectionism. I am passionate about guiding individuals through identity exploration and self-esteem development, and enjoy working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as those facing women’s issues or life transitions. Whether you’re working to better understand yourself and your experiences, make meaningful lifestyle changes, or untangle the roots of unhelpful patterns, we’ll take the journey together—at your pace.

I primarily utilize person-centered and cognitive behavioral (CBT) approaches, while incorporating aspects of exposure and response prevention (ERP), trauma-informed approaches, LGBTQ-affirmative counseling, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused approaches depending on your specific preferences and needs.

I take a collaborative and authentic approach to therapy, grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. I’m here to learn from you, support you, and work alongside you to ensure therapy is meaningful and aligned with your needs. I believe that while therapy can be deeply emotional and transformative, it’s important to make space for creativity and humor too!
