Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Understanding the importance of attentively listening and empowering through the delivery of strength-based, impactful and supportive services is essential to the therapeutic process. I have spent over 15 years developing my skill set with the goal of providing quality care/services to every child and family I encounter. My compassion and love for “the work” is what has driven me to seek an advanced degree in Social Work at the University of Southern California. I graduated from Eastern CT State University with a bachelor’s degree in social work as well as completing my Master of Social Work Degree at Springfield College.
My goal is to help you uncover your true potential in order to lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we cannot change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges. By applying evidence-based therapeutic approaches and techniques, we will discover long-standing behavior patterns and/or negative perceptions that may be interfering with your ability to experience a more fulfilling and meaningful life. With compassion and understanding, I provide a personalized approach tailored to help children/youth, couples, or family’s build on their strengths and attain the growth they are committed to accomplishing.
In our time together, we will develop realistic coping strategies that we can utilize when feeling distressed. My clinical expertise and abilities are in bipolar disorders, depressive and anxiety disorders, grief and loss, self-esteem/self-image challenges, social anxiety, anger management, relationship challenges, work/life balance and stress reduction. In addition, I am able to work with Victims of Crime (assault, intimate partner violence, sexual assault) to address immediate crisis challenges and issues around Post Traumatic Stress.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person care for most individuals.
A major benefit of online sessions is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that suits them best – video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily life.
These services are provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and clients are free to change therapists if they prefer a different fit. For many people, the combination of clinical expertise and flexible access makes online therapy a practical option for getting consistent support.
