Reaching out for support is an act of courage, and I honor you for taking the first step toward lasting change! You're here because you're going through something, and whatever that is, I'm here to help. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Louisiana and Massachusetts (in MA my license is "LICSW") with ten years of experience working as a psychotherapist for children, adolescents, and adults. I have helped clients and families through issues including anxiety and depression, parenting challenging children, career difficulties, issues related to sexuality and gender identity, ADHD, life stress, work-life balance, relationship issues, and more. As someone who has struggled with both anxiety and depression at various points in my life, I come at the therapeutic process with both personal and professional knowledge, and always keep in mind those things that were most helpful to me when I was the one seeking a therapist. My style as a therapist reflects my belief that the relationship you and I forge is the foundation from which change becomes possible. Working through the things which hold us back can mean facing difficult feelings and memories, and it's important to have the right partner on that journey. I aim to be a supportive and encouraging partner in change, as well as getting to know you well so that I can provide interventions that make sense for you rather than a one size fits all approach. I believe in helping you build a toolbox of concrete tools and skills that you can draw from moving forward—in helping you equip yourself to meet not only the challenges you’re facing now, but also leaving you better prepared to manage future challenges as they come. I'm here to support you as we explore ways to help you meet your goals and live your best life!

Hi. I have quite an extensive work history in the social service field all leading to my present and most rewarding position as an Independent Clinical Social Worker/Therapist. All my years of being in this field has given me the opportunity to work with a very diverse population, including the LGBTQIA community. I particularly enjoy working with people who struggle with interpersonal conflict whether it is with self, a friend, spouse/partner, professionals, parents, children, teachers/professor’s, etc., which all can be very difficult to maneuver through at times. These conflicts can cause immense anxiety, depression, confusion, sometimes leading to substance use and other issues/behaviors that you may want to address. My treatment approach is varied and includes a humanistic one of acceptance allowing for a building of trust and collaboration between us as well as evidence based practices of cognitive behavioral techniques, psycho-dynamic therapy, and motivational interviewing. "While there's life, there's hope" I look forward to hearing from you!

You've made the first, most difficult steps of identifying what you need to talk about, knowing you need to talk to someone 'outside,' and taking the leap of contacting us. I live in Massachusetts and have counseled many in schools, hospitals, clinics and private offices over the years. This new online telehealth platform created by some very creative people offers you and I an opportunity to meet and talk outside of the hassles of scheduling, driving, parking and talking in an office with a counselor, then repeating the same every 'visit.' I'm eager to meet you in this new environment where we can get to know each other much more easily. I provide short term, solution focused, individual therapy of 2-12 sessions with BH members who have issues and needs that can be resolved, relieved or improved within the frames of time and focus of short term therapy. I have studied and worked with a number of therapy approaches, for example, CBT, DBT, solution focused, family systems and couples' therapy. I am better at describing them in person, virtually. I strongly believe that we have within us what we need to heal ourselves from the emotional pain experienced in pasts and presents, and grow as we become our better selves. I also believe that change comes from the power of the therapeutic alliance: working together to improve your life and circumstances, as much as my skills and your innate strengths.
