I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Rhode Island and Massachusetts with 3 years of direct psychotherapy experience working with children, adolescents, and families. In addition, I have over 10 years experience mentoring youth and families and over 4 years as a life coach for women struggling with health and weight issues. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, discipline strategies, OCD and Panic Disorder. I also worked with many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and goal oriented. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I also have experience with DBT (Dialect Behavioral Therapy) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
