Welcome to all! At some point in all of our lives, we reach a period of needing to reach out for some extra support. Sometimes the hardest part of seeking help is realizing that is "okay to not be okay". I am currently a LICSW in the state of Rhode Island and have worked in a variety of scenarios allowing me to provide treatment to those in need, ranging from working with individuals on inpatient psychiatric units to providing individual counseling with students in high school. The guiding principle when working with my clients is that we are a team working toward the same goal, a goal that is always set by you. My training is strongly rooted in CBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused interventions. Nobody is perfect and I want you to know that reaching out for help is a sign of great strength, NOT weakness. I look forward to working with you as a means for you to become the best version of yourself!

I enjoy working collaboratively and creatively with my clients. I am enthusiastic about the power of the therapeutic process and its ability to transform the human condition. Utilizing a holistic and eclectic approach, I primarily employ Client-Centered Therapy in counseling sessions and incorporate evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy along the way. My 11 years of experience in clinical counseling has been influenced by a multicultural and social justice perspective and has involved helping children, adolescents, and adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings to successfully address histories of trauma, depression and anxiety, concerns centered on identity and self-esteem, substance use and chemical dependence, crisis management, and interpersonal conflict among others. The genuine and empathic posture I take in our work, along with the supportive, non-judgmental, and safer space I aim to offer you, will assist us in identifying your strengths and inner resources while examining the problems and distress you are experiencing. I endeavor to help you increase self-esteem, facilitate personal development, and evoke the discovery of answers and solutions necessary for your progress. Additionally, I will aid you in cultivating greater insight and awareness through the exploration of your thoughts and feelings, guide you in creating effective strategies to manage the situations that have brought you to counseling, and promote movement toward healing and growth.
