Who I am
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Massachusetts and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Connecticut. I attended Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts for both my Bachelors in Counseling Psychology and a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
I'm passionate about helping people connect to their authentic selves and foster self-compassion. I aim to help people combat shame and anxiety and embrace recovery and a life free from disordered eating and perfectionism. I practice from a Health At Every Size (HAES)perspective.
In addition to my eating disorder specialty, I greatly enjoy working with people who do not struggle with disordered eating or body image issues. I also work with people living with OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, depression, and more. In the past, I worked as an Academic Coach for Graduate Students on a university campus in Boston and provided targeted education around productivity, study skills, and organization. I’ve worked in a tech start-up environment and greatly enjoy supporting high-performing individuals.
In my clinical work, I incorporate aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness techniques to help clients create happier and healthier lives.
Whether you're seeking therapy to better understand your emotions, process a life change, or improve your relationships, I'll work collaboratively with you to discover full potential.
Aside from being passionate about mental health, I love music, romantic comedies and true crime documentaries, sunsets, dogs, and enjoying yummy food with family and friends.

What are sessions like?
I start each session by asking how your week has been, “catch me up!”
We’ll chat through your days, talk about big events or things that have really worked you up recently—but we’ll also explore larger themes and patterns tied to your treatment goals.
Sessions are a comfortable space to process your week, get reflective, and even have a laugh or two.
