Mental Health Counselor

I am a clinician at our West Springfield clinic who provides therapy services!

I enjoy working with a diverse range of clients, spanning early childhood and adolescence through early and late adulthood. My clients may be facing issues such as anxiety and depression, body image and eating disorders, interpersonal problems, or navigating life changes. I view each client as the unique individual they are, and customize my approach to meet that person’s specific needs, experiences, and goals with empathy and respect.

I have training in a variety of modalities such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Informed Harm Reduction, and Trauma-Focused CBT. My overall style is based on client-centered therapy, but I believe it is imperative to tailor my approach to each client individually. I incorporate each client’s learning style into session, utilizing worksheets and handouts, hands-on activities, videos, or role play to support meaningful therapeutic progress.

I believe in creating a safe space where you can openly discuss your thoughts, experiences, or worries without fear of judgment. I understand that this process can be difficult, whether you are taking the step towards therapy for the first time or trying to find a new counselor who “gets” you. I’m proud of you for starting this journey!
